Die Forsythie blüht in Deutschland inzwischen etwa zwei Wochen früher als noch vor einigen Jahrzehnten — ein sichtbares Zeichen des Klimawandels.
The forsythia now blooms in Germany about two weeks earlier than it did a few decades ago — a visible sign of climate change.
Cultural Context
German meteorologists (Deutsche Wetterdienst / DWD) use the forsythia (Forsythie) as a biological indicator to mark the arrival of spring. Research shows it now blooms approximately two weeks earlier than it did a few decades ago — a visible, everyday sign of climate change that Germans observe in their own gardens and parks.
