In the fight against climate change, every green space matters. Gardens are more than just places of beauty and biodiversity—they are natural CO₂ storage units that can help municipalities move toward climate neutrality. As cities and towns face growing demands to reduce emissions, Klimagärten³ turns gardens into climate solutions, offering innovative approaches to make green spaces work for both nature and policy goals.

Leading the project, OIKOPLUS ensures strong collaboration between partners, analyzes climate-adaptive gardening practices, and develops strategies to measure and enhance the CO₂ storage potential of urban green spaces. With expertise in participatory research and science communication, OIKOPLUS also drives the project’s outreach and dissemination, making complex research accessible to municipalities, policymakers, and the public. Through tailored communication formats and public engagement, Klimagärten³ empowers communities to transform their gardens into thriving, climate-resilient landscapes—helping Austria grow greener, one garden at a time.
