Strawberry moon shines over BW: Focus on radicalization through gaming!
On June 12, 2025, the persistent strawberry moon caught the attention of many people in Baden-Württemberg. The day before, numerous amateur photographers had captured impressive snapshots of the phenomenon. These special shots provided a scenic look back at the night of June 11, 2025, when the Strawberry Moon was at its peak.
In the current news situation, a legal ruling also stands out: the Stuttgart Higher Regional Court decided that Ravensburger Verlag can continue to use the famous drawing of the “Vitruvian Man” by Leonardo Da Vinci for puzzles in Germany. The ruling is based on the provisions of Italian cultural property law, which is only valid within national borders.
Current developments and social challenges
The radicalization of children and young people on gaming platforms is a concern for politics in Baden-Württemberg. The state government is planning comprehensive measures to counteract this growing problem. This initiative is part of a larger approach to promote digital security and protect young users.
Another critical aspect of our time is the health of the population. An outbreak of norovirus at the Ichenhausen specialist clinic has affected 62 people, and the situation has been closely monitored since May 22, 2025. The trend of increasing deficits among primary school children, which 85% of teachers in Baden-Württemberg report, is also worrying.
Parallel to the discussion about public health, there is also good news from happiness research: the Happiness Atlas shows that life satisfaction in major cities in Baden-Württemberg is lower than expected. Mannheim in particular is in 17th place, Stuttgart is in 19th place and Karlsruhe is the most dissatisfied city in the survey with 38th place.
Accidents and safety notes
In recent days, several serious traffic accidents have caused a stir: A 17-year-old motorcyclist tragically died in an accident in Lichtenstein when she was overlooked by a driver. In addition, a truck lost crates of drinks on the A5 near Walldorf, which led to the motorway entrance being closed at night.
In addition, a tragic accident occurred near Sigmaringen in which a 53-year-old cyclist died after a collision with a tractor. These incidents highlight the need for increased road safety measures.
In other news, Baden-Württemberg is planning measures to combat the invasive Asian tiger mosquito, including through the use of Bti tablets. This mosquito not only poses a health risk, but could also threaten local ecosystems.
Finally, it turns out that the weather in Baden-Württemberg is currently characterized by a heat wave with temperatures of up to 33 degrees, which brings with it a high risk of sunburn.
