The sustainability efforts of the Stuttgart
Die Stuttgarter has set itself the goal of being climate-neutral by 2045 – including all capital investments. The focus of these measures is on reducing and avoiding CO₂ emissions. In 2013, the company created its Green Pension, a retirement plan that is sustainable and promotes the future viability of the environment and society. Since January 2021, Die Stuttgarter has been generating a significant portion of its own electricity needs with the help of a photovoltaic system on the roof of its headquarters.

300-year-old oaks
Nature is always in motion, never static, an ongoing process. That's what makes it so fascinating to simply observe the oaks, beeches, and many other tree species. Who will prevail in the eternal competition for light? 300-year-old, majestic oaks grow on the area protected by the Stuttgart government. Forests of this age are almost nowhere else in Germany left – yet these trees provide unique habitats for rare animals and plants. Thanks to the commitment of the Stuttgart government, this forest will be allowed to grow undisturbed for at least another 50 years.
