Schaue ich aus meinem Wohnzimmer-Fenster, dann sehe ich eine schöne Baum-Allee...

Seit über 50 Jahre lebe ich an der Ollenhauerstraße und bin mit diesen Bäumen groß geworden.

Im Oktober 2026 werden diese und über 100 weitere Bäume, die an dieser Straße stehen, gefällt. 😑

Warum?

Die Straße soll erneuert werden - neue Straßenaufteilung = Platz für Autos - und dafür müssen die Bäume weichen.

Im Zuge des Klimawandels und der aktuellen heißen Temperaturen, ist es kaum vorstellbar, dass dieses Projekt tatsächlich umgesetzt werden wird.

Aber der Plan steht und jede Initiative, die gegen diesen Plan kämpft, wird ignoriert und sogar beschimpft.

Eine traurige Entwicklund und traurig ist natürlich auch, dass diese groß gewachsenen Bäume "einfach so" verschwinden werden.

Ich kann mir die Straße ohne die Bäume gar nicht vorstellen....aber es wird passieren. 😭

When I look out my living room window, I see a beautiful tree-lined avenue...

I’ve lived on Ollenhauerstraße for over 50 years and grew up with these trees.

In October 2026, these trees and over 100 others lining this street will be cut down. 😑

Why?

The street is set to be renovated—a new road layout means more space for cars—and the trees have to make way for that.

Given climate change and the current heat wave, it’s hard to imagine that this project will actually go ahead.

But the plan is set in stone, and any initiative fighting against it is ignored and even vilified.

It’s a sad development, and of course it’s also sad that these mature trees will disappear “just like that.”

I can’t even imagine the street without the trees… but it’s going to happen. 😭

Viaggiando dal lago di Ginevra al Lago di Thun si trova un paesaggio da fiaba dove il colore verde è autentico. Su un piccolo colle svetta un albero perfetto che si gode il panorama. Ricordo una vacanza bellissima in Svizzera. Questo albero è diventato un disegno e il ricordo vive.

Mi presento, sono un Platano.

Forse dalla foto non si direbbe, ma il mio tronco è così grande che ci vogliono almeno due persone per abbracciarmi tutto. Chissà se sono già un centenario....

Una volta mi tenevano compagnia altri platani, ma con il passare del tempo sono rimasto da solo qui, e accanto a me passano tante macchine, camion, moto, e forse è per questo motivo che sono poche le persone che vengono a sedersi vicino a me per godere della mia ombra e della mia energia.

In compenso sono un perfetto rifugio per molte specie di animali.

Questo Albero è magnifico e mi auguro che venga preservato.

----

Let me introduce myself—I’m a plane tree.

You might not tell it from the photo, but my trunk is so big that it takes at least two people to wrap their arms all the way around me. I wonder if I’m already a hundred years old....

I used to have other plane trees keeping me company, but as time went by, I was left here all alone, and lots of cars, trucks, and motorcycles pass by me—and maybe that’s why so few people come to sit near me to enjoy my shade and my energy.

On the other hand, I’m a perfect refuge for many species of animals.

This tree is magnificent, and I hope it will be preserved.

Standing beneath one of Yemen’s extraordinary Dragon Blood Trees, a living symbol of resilience, strength and survival. 🌳🇾🇪 Found primarily on the island of Socotra, these ancient trees have endured for centuries in one of the world’s most remarkable landscapes. For me, this image also reflects the spirit of Yemen: deeply rooted, incredibly resilient, and home to a cultural and natural heritage that deserves to be seen, understood and protected. Through GLOBALBERO, I’m grateful to help shine a light beyond the headlines and toward the people, stories and beauty that make places like Yemen so extraordinary. Because true connection begins when we look beyond what we think we know - and take the time to listen, learn and understand.May we continue building bridges between cultures, communities and generations.

Hier war bis vor wenigen Jahren dichter, dunkler, tiefer Tannenwald, wie im Märchen. Monokultur, Sturm, Trockenheit und Borkenkäfer haben gemeinsam gewütet und nun sieht die Landschaft so aus. Ich hoffe, dass meine Kinder und Enkel wieder im dunklen, schönen Wald wandern können!

----

Until just a few years ago, this was a dense, dark, deep fir forest, just like in a fairy tale. Monoculture, storms, drought, and bark beetles have all taken their toll, and now the landscape looks like this. I hope that my children and grandchildren will be able to hike in that dark, beautiful forest again!

"Preghiera Laica" - Questo Progetto (prurtroppo non ancora realizzato) è pensato per un reparto oncologico: un grande murales su pannelli lignei, un work in progress che dovrebbe coinvolgere gli osservatori in una partecipazione attiva, scrivendo un pensiero di speranza su foglie di carta da fermare con puntine sui pannelli di legno. La foto è parziale e il lavoro è disperso, ma spero un giorno di poterlo concretizzare.

“Secular Prayer” - This project (which, unfortunately, has not yet been realized) is designed for an oncology ward: a large mural on wooden panels, a work in progress intended to engage viewers in active participation by having them write a message of hope on pieces of paper and pin them to the wooden panels. The photo shows only part of the work, and the pieces are currently scattered, but I hope to bring this project to life one day.

"IO FACCIO LA DIFFERENZiatA" - un laboratorio aperto durante la fiera del Rapulè del 2020 dove i visitatori diventavano creatori di un quadro collettivo. In questa occasione il gioco di parole "differenza e differenziata" sensibilizzava i passanti sull'importanza di considerare i rifiuti risorse. L'opera finale è questo alabero creato da intrecci di fili che partivano dai nomi delle persone per svilupparsi nel fusto e terminare nella chioma fatta di carta, plastica, misto, vetro e "foglie di pensiero" dove ciascuno poteva inserire il suo significato di differenza. Questo si svolse nel Crotin di zia Tina.

“I MAKE THE DIFFERENCE” — a workshop held during the 2020 Rapulè Fair where visitors became creators of a collective artwork. On this occasion, the play on words ‘differenza’ (difference) and “differenziata” (recycling) raised awareness among passersby about the importance of viewing waste as a resource. The final artwork is this tree created by intertwining threads that started from people’s names, grew into the trunk, and ended in a canopy made of paper, plastic, mixed materials, glass, and “leaves of thought,” where everyone could add their own meaning of “difference.” This took place at Aunt Tina’s Crotin.

"L'albero dei Soli" - periodo Covid.

Questo albero purtroppo non c'è più, ma è stato un progetto molto partecipato, portatore di un bel messaggio di condivisione. Eccolo nella foto insieme al mio cane Farfui, anche questo albero (come quello della conoscenza del centro studi Pavese) fatto con materiale ligneo di recupero. Vi invito a guardare il video nel link allegato. La musica è stata composta con delicata maestria dal mio caro amico musicista Rik Parato.

“The Tree of Suns” - During the COVID-19 pandemic.

Unfortunately, this tree is no longer there, but it was a project that drew a lot of participation and conveyed a beautiful message of sharing. Here it is in the photo alongside my dog Farfui; this tree, like the “Tree of Knowledge” at the Pavese Study Center, was also made from reclaimed wood. I invite you to watch the video at the link below. The music was composed with delicate artistry by my dear friend, the musician Rik Parato.

Quadro – Dimensioni: 3m x 2m – Titolo: “L'albero della conoscenza - Prospettiva occidentale - Classificazione decimale Dewey 0-999”.

Questo è stato il mio lavoro di tesi presso l'Accademia di Belle Arti di Torino. L'opera faceva parte dell'installazione “Ci vuole un fiore ” in riferimento alla canzone di Sergio Endrigo ed era composta da tre alberi: “Albero della conoscenza (quadro) - Albero della speranza (video-progetto di un'installazione pubblica con carillon gigante) - Albero della vita (albero di melograno vivo) ogni visitatore ricevette in dono una primula”. Oggi il quadro si trova presso il Centro Studi Pavese. L'opera è stata realizzata interamente con materiali di recupero di origine lignea, richiedendo tre mesi di intenso lavoro.

Painting – Dimensions: 3 m x 2 m – Title: “The Tree of Knowledge – Western Perspective – Dewey Decimal Classification 0-999.”

This was my thesis project at the Academy of Fine Arts in Turin. The work was part of the installation “Ci vuole un fiore” (It Takes a Flower), a reference to the song by Sergio Endrigo, and consisted of three trees: “Tree of Knowledge (painting) – Tree of Hope (video project for a public installation featuring a giant music box) – Tree of Life (living pomegranate tree); each visitor received a primrose as a gift.” Today, the painting is housed at the Pavese Study Center. The work was created entirely from reclaimed wood materials and required three months of intensive work.

90-jährige frei stehende Winterlinde auf der Forch bei Zürich. Sie wird jeweils Ende November bis zum Dreikönigstag zur Weihnachtslinde umgestaltet mit 120 Lampensträngen á 20m. Auch die vielen Autofahrer auf der Forchschnellstrasse erfreuen sich daran, da der Baum dann auch nachts beleuchtet wird. Gratis Punch gibt es dann an den Adventssonntagen. Der Baum erstrahlt aber auch im Sommer mit seiner ganzen Pracht.

A 90-year-old free-standing small-leaved linden tree on the Forch near Zurich. Every year from the end of November until Epiphany, it is transformed into the “Christmas Linden” with 120 strands of lights, each 20 meters long. Drivers on the Forch Expressway also enjoy the sight, as the tree is illuminated at night. Free punch is served on Advent Sundays. But the tree also shines in all its splendor during the summer.

Im magischen Garten der Kleinen Dorfschule gibt es viele Bäume, dieser ist mein Lieblingsbaum.

Unten zwischen Moosbach und Mühlgraben spendet er Schatten und ist auf dieser Seite vom Grundstück ein wichtiger Schutz für die Frauen, die Ruhe und Klarheit suchen bei einer Auszeit.

In the magical garden of the Little Village School, there are many trees; this is my favorite one.

Down below, between Moosbach (little river) and Mühlgraben (mill ditch), it provides shade and serves as an important refuge on this side of the premise for women seeking peace and clarity during a break.

These aren't the loveliest trees in Singapore, but they fill me with nostalgia. As a 5-year-old, I used to gaze at them while standing beneath the shophouse in the photo (the one I grew up in), waiting for my school bus to arrive. To my right was a coffeeshop, where I have fond memories of my dad teaching me how to pour hot cocoa from a cup onto a saucer, so the drink would cool faster.

Ich habe mehrere Lieblingsbäume, und es ist schwer, mich zu entscheiden. Ich wähle hier einen Baum, der im Unteren Allgäu recht bekannt ist, denn er steht auf dem Ende eines langgestreckten Drumlins (Ein Drumlin ist eine Art Eiszeithinterlassenschaft.).

Der Baum befindet sich am Wiesweg beim Gehöft Heiligenbauer. Albert Einstein war einige Jahre lang Urlaubsgast im nahegelegenen Schloss Lautrach. Er dürfte hier sicher öfter vorbeigewandert sein.

I have several favorite trees, so it's hard to choose just one. I've chosen a tree that is quite well known in the Lower Allgäu because it stands at the end of a long, narrow drumlin (a drumlin is a landform left behind by glaciers during the Ice Age).

The tree is located on Wiesweg, near the Heiligenbauer farmstead. Albert Einstein spent several summers as a holiday guest at the nearby Lautrach Castle, and he likely walked past this tree on more than one occasion.

My Favorite Giant Sequoia

In spring I count the days with restless longing,
And feel new life awakening inside of me.
I'm proud when I bear my very first blossoms,
Which soon the sun transforms into ripe fruit.

In summer I gather the rays of the sun,
And many a weary traveler
Rests beneath my shade.
When my leaves paint dancing shadows,
They sing within the wind,
And I listen to their songs.

I give the birds a place to call their home,
The bees come and go.
Whoever comes to me
Will not have made the journey in vain.
I need the earth, the air, and the light,
And until my final branch should break,
I am the Tree of Life for everyone.
I am the Tree of Life for everyone.

In autumn I let the storms
Bend my branches,
And I give this world
Its most beautiful display of colors.
I watch my leaves
Soar high upon the wind,
And I know their joyful dance
Makes farewell easier to bear.

In winter I carry snow
Upon my branches,
And feel eternity
In many a silent moment.
I gather new strength
Within my quietness,
Only to give it back again
A thousandfold.

I give the birds a place to call their home,
The bees come and go.
Whoever comes to me
Will not have made the journey in vain.
I need the earth, the air, and the light,
And until my final branch should break,
I am the Tree of Life for everyone.
I am the Tree of Life for everyone.

Zu einem veritablen Baum ist diese Myrte, die lange ihr Dasein als Topfpflanze auf meinem Balkon hatte, erst, seit sie ihre Wurzeln in die Erde schlagen darf. Sie lebt nun auf der Alpensüdseite in unserem Ferienhaus.

Madeleine Felber (Felber heisst "von den Silberweiden kommend!")

Madeleine Felber (Felber means "coming from the silver willows")

Bäume und Menschen bilden auf Mutter Erde, dem blauen Planeten, eine Schicksalsgemeinschaft:

Das Kohlendioxid, das wir ausatmen, nehmen die Bäume über die Blätter und Nadeln auf, und speichern den Kohlenstoff in Ästen und Stämmen. Den Sauerstoff atmen die Bäume wieder aus, und wir atmen ihn ein. Der Sauerstoff bildet unsere Lebensgrundlage.

Ohne Luft, sterben wir. Bäume und Menschen – Menschen und Bäume – wir gehören unmittelbar zusammen.

Lasst uns einander respektieren und dafür sorgen, dass auch die Rechte der Bäume geschützt werden.

Trees and human being form a community bound by a shared destiny on Mother Earth, the blue planet:

The carbon dioxide we exhale is absorbed by trees through their leaves and needles, and the carbon is stored in their branches and trunks. The trees exhale oxygen, and we inhale it. Oxygen is essential to life. Without air we die.

Trees and people—people and trees—we are inextricably linked together.

Let’s respect one another and ensure that trees, too, have their rights protected.
