Happy !

🌿 A milestone worth celebrating: Germany’s Federal Environment Ministry turns 40 tomorrow, June 6th.

🇩🇪 Founded in 1986 in the wake of Chernobyl, the ministry has spent four decades making a difference — from helping close the ozone hole to turning the electric car into a serious alternative to the combustion engine, and transforming landfill waste mountains into a thriving, export-strong recycling industry. Proof that environmental commitment pays off!

Bridging Innovation & Climate Action 🌍🤝

🇩🇪🇺🇸A delegation from the Budget Committee of the German Bundestag (Haushaltsausschuss) completed the first leg of a fact-finding mission across California and Washington, D.C., exploring opportunities for deeper transatlantic cooperation in economic development, research, education, climate action, and technology.

From high-level meetings in Sacramento during California’s primary elections, and in the midst of crucial state budget negotiations to exchanges with Bay Area tech leaders, climate innovators, security experts, and leading research institutions, the visit highlighted the strong ties and shared ambitions between Germany and California.

✈️Wishing the delegation a good onward journey to Los Angles & Washington D.C., !

Last Wednesday, the “The Dialogue of Memories” based on Howard Reich’s book “The Art of Inventing Hope: Intimate Conversations with Elie Wiesel” premiered at the Presidio Theater.

Consul General Theo Kidess & Deputy Consul General Franciska Obermeyer were honored to be part of the San Francisco inaugural performance of this wonderful and touching opera with music by Tom Cipullo.

In the interview before the performance, moderated by Mina Miller, founder and artistic director of “Music of Remembrance”, the audience gained touching insights on Howard’s family story where – as in many survivor families – the Holocaust was not talked about. The opera touches on that and aims at illuminating how understanding can be reached across generations and opening doors of memory, hope and compassion.

The Consulate General of San Francisco was happy to once again support Music of Remembrance as a community partner alongside Open Austria, the Consulate General of Israel and the American Jewish Committee.

We are already looking forward to next year’s performances in Seattle, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, in San Francisco in Spring.

The German Consulate General in San Francisco will remain closed on Monday, May 25th in observance of Memorial Day.
