At the end of January, Tim Rozenski was appointed to this honorary position by the Göttelborn local council. The 36-year-old works professionally as a clerk at the Gregor Lehnert corporate group in Fischbach-Camphausen and has been involved in local politics for many years. From 2014 to 2019, he was a member of the municipal council, and since 2019 he has been a member of the Göttelborn local council.
„I have always been interested in nature. Plants, in particular, have fascinated me since I was a child. In the 1990s and 2000s, many movies, series, and video games dealt with environmental pollution and humanity’s relationship with nature in general. The message that we humans harm the planet with our behavior has deeply influenced me,“ says Rozenski, adding, „In everyday life, respect for our environment is often missing. Batteries, deposit bottles, and ‚gas station schnapps‘ bottles can be found everywhere; often, such items are carelessly thrown out of cars. It always shocks me anew that furniture and scrap are frequently ‚disposed of‘ in the forest. Since I have always been someone who prefers to lend a hand rather than just complain and watch idly, I decided to take on this beautiful task in my hometown.“
After the unexpected death of the long-serving nature conservation officer Gilbert Schmidt in 2021, this honorary position remained vacant. "He left big shoes to fill with his dedication," says Rozenski. "I would like to continue this task in his spirit and am happy to be a contact person for environmental issues to the people in Göttelborn. If everyone contributes even just a little, we can achieve a lot together." Mayor Lutz Maurer shares this view, warmly congratulating the new nature conservation officer in the Göttelborn municipal district: "Environmental and nature conservation issues are more important than ever today. Therefore, I am very pleased that we were able to gain Mr. Rozenski, an exceptionally committed young man, for this honorary position. I wish him every success and look forward to working together," says Mayor Maurer.
