Since July 2025 Gründau has published a live "heat map" on its homepage, showing temperature, humidity and air pressure from sensors at seven playgrounds across all districts, carried over the municipality's LoRaWAN network (built since 2022). Separately, the town joined a federally funded two-year intercommunal climate-adaptation strategy in September 2025.
