But characteristic of the Volcanic Eifel are its unique crater lakes, the maars… Gerolstein … …is a picturesque town in the Volcanic Eifel with approximately 7,450 inhabitants. The town is also a climatic spa. In 1337 Gerolstein got the town rights. Gerolstein is headquarters to a large mineral water firm, Gerolsteiner Brunnen. Gerolsteiner – the only mineral water with a star The special characteristics of Gerolsteiner mineral water are due to its originating in the Volcanic Eifel. A mineral water of outstanding quality can develop here due to the particular combination of carbonic acid of volcanic origin and dolomite rock rich in minerals. Team Gerolsteiner From 1998 to 2008 Gerolsteiner had a top cycling team including such famous names as Fabian Wegmann and Davide Rebellin. Water is good for you, but also one of the basic ingredients to produce something we Germans are very famous for… …beer! Only 38 kilometres from Gerolstein lies Bitburg, home of the world famous Bitburger beer. The brewery is one of the largest companies in the Volcanic Eifel. It produces quality beer which is known and consumed all over the world. The Bitburger brewery was founded in 1817 by Theobald Simon. The Bitburger brewery is very much into football and sponsors our national team. Motorsport also plays a big role in the Eifel. The German Grand Prix on the Formula 1 calendar takes place at the Nürburgring. The Nordschleife Copyright: Nürburgring Automotive GmbH The Nürburgring… …opened in 1927… …once a year in July the Nürburgring becomes a famous racetrack… …is considered as being one of the most famous national monuments in Germany! The Nürburgring… Copyright: Nürburgring Automotive GmbH …is not only a mecca for motorsport fans. In 2009 a large leisure center with roller coasters, a shopping center, pubs, discos, a hotel and a village named "Grüne Hölle" ('Green Hell') was opened near the racetrack. Copyright: Nürburgring Automotive GmbH Once a year the Nürburgring hosts one of the largest festivals in Europe… Audience record in 2010: 86,500 music lovers The 2012 edition of Rock am Ring (01.-03.06.12) headlines the German band "Die Toten Hosen". Other famous bands which have played here already are: Metallica, System of a Down, Linkin Park, Kiss, Red Hot Chili Peppers and… …The Beatsteaks… …as well as the British duo Hurts… …and Coldplay! Music is also part of another tradition, "Karneval" or "Fastnacht", which is also known as the "Fifth Season"… The "Fifth Season" starts on the 11th of November. It ends on "Ascher- mittwoch", the Wednesday 40 days before Easter… The idea behind "Karneval" is that everything is turned upside down – people are allowed to celebrate for a couple of days before they start fasting. Fancy costumes… … and colourful decorations are also part of the celebrations. The Volcanic Eifel isn‘t only a beautiful place to live, work and celebrate, but has also brought forth a couple of celebrities such as… …Pascal Hens, born in Daun, plays handball in the German national team… …and "Euro-Eddy", actually Edgar Schmitt from Dudeldorf, a famous football player in the 1990s… Source: www.welt.de …other celebrities even moved to the Eifel, for example Thomas D from the famous German band "Die Fantastischen Vier" (means 'The Fantastic Four')! As you can see, the Volcanic Eifel is a lovely place worth visiting. See you in Gerolstein in 2012! The End Thanks for your attention! .

Through it, mineral salts are diluted and organic substances are maintained in cells, which in turn enable vital reactions from the simplest to the most complex and specialised forms of life. The end of the Ice Age released large quantities of nutrients into the ocean. From these nutrients, algae and animals appeared,1 and as they diversified into zoological species, they moved from water to land and incorporated water into their own organism.2 Water is an irreplaceable element in nature, as are air, land, atmosphere, biodiversity, plants, animal and human species. It is undeniable that water has exercised multivariate vital functions in living beings in the food chain since mankind has records of its existence, be they geological, biological, anthropological or from climate science.3 1 ↩ Sara Romero.
