This includes, for example, the appointment of an environmental officer and the renunciation of the use of pesticides in extensive rough areas. &#8220;We naturally hope that the environmental officer will be given the necessary resources by the management and will also be listened to,&#8221; says <strong>Managing Director Andr\u00e9 Kette<\/strong> optimistically.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-q58t3h-593c1b991faa0955a5e99422e7973368 '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><p>INSERT_STEADY_NEWSLETTER_SIGNUP_HERE<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-l61bth-23e37317fdeffef9bc451898f27c371a '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><p>The optimism of the association&#8217;s management is well-founded. Since the launch of the golf course habitat project in Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg, it has developed into a national initiative in which Rhineland-Palatinate, Hesse and North Rhine-Westphalia are now also participating. A similar program is underway in Bavaria with the Bl\u00fchpakt Bayern. &#8220;I would never have dreamed that our joint project would be such a success. I congratulate you,&#8221; said State Secretary Andre Baumann, who has been involved with the project since 2020, enthusiastically. He summed up by saying that the golf course habitat is unique in Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg.    <\/p>\n<p>The next phase should now also involve the golf industry opening up more to the outside world. &#8220;We want to open up to society,&#8221; explained President Marbler and also referred to the important role of the Environmental Committee at this point. This committee had organized the environmental symposium under the leadership of <g id=\"gid_0\">Prof. Dr. Martin Els\u00e4\u00dfer<\/g>. According to Els\u00e4\u00dfer, as an environmentally relevant sport, it is important to make it clear to authorities, institutions and the general public that golf has an interest in preserving and expanding biodiversity.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-15t4g4t-5363e4089d7ad0cbeda31928bdc3d737\">\n.avia-image-container.av-15t4g4t-5363e4089d7ad0cbeda31928bdc3d737 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-15t4g4t-5363e4089d7ad0cbeda31928bdc3d737 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-15t4g4t-5363e4089d7ad0cbeda31928bdc3d737 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-6  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '  ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-29624 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-29624 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/golfsustainable.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/250410_Spx_UWS_29330-1500x630.jpg\" alt='' title='3rd BWGV environmental symposium, environmental forum, golf and nature, biodiversity on the golf course, 10.04.2025'  height=\"630\" width=\"1500\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-m9brticj-12f54e3486ef6edff86616bd43e758c6 '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><p><strong>Dr. Gerhard Bronner, Chairman of the State Nature Conservation Association,<\/strong> and <strong>Dr. Gunther Hardt, Head of the Biodiversity Working Group of the German Golf Association,<\/strong> provided the 60 or so participants at the environmental symposium with initial suggestions for possible activities. <g id=\"gid_2\">Dr. Janet Maringer from the Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg Land Agency<\/g> explained how enhanced areas can also have a positive economic impact through the creation of eco-points, who also made a reference to CSDR reporting on golf courses.

In this context, he also pointed out the important role of communicating biodiversity measures both internally to golfers and externally to the media and non-golfers.  <\/p>\n<p>The new Habitat Golf Course initiative will become a reality in the coming weeks when interested clubs from Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg sign the voluntary commitment. &#8220;The Habitat Golf Course certificate will then be issued for two years and must be renewed each time in accordance with the requirements,&#8221; Kette explains the next steps.
