The UK pledges £40m to help countries devastated by climate breakdown. That's equivalent to 0.07% of the family wealth of the UK Prime Minister. That's how seriously our leaders take the greatest threat our species has ever faced & how much they care about those on the frontline.

Internal German politics, but still, always good to find out who a minister is. Today, it's the FDPs Education minister, quoting a right wing tabloid and attacking... academics who don't find it ok that their students get beaten up on campus. This must be that free speech stuff

[reposted von ein FDP MdB] Was für eine bizarre Argumentationslinie: Wenn Kühlschränke ohne CFC Umweltfreundlicher sind, warum muss man CFC verbieten? Wenn Alkohol am Steuer gefährlich ist, warum muss man es verbieten?

The main German public broadcaster reports on the climate collapse. The next post is about the poor German car industry (VW just paid out 5bn in dividends), but there is 'hope' that affordable chinese electric cars don't make it to Europe.

in a shocking twist, climate change is infinitely more disruptive and deadly than the actions of those trying to thwart it! good job we threw them all in jail though!

A local SPD politician, from the ruling coalition of both Berlin and Germany, posts how violence against demonstrators is ok, because we don't know what happened before. Why do SPD Berlin love violence? After respectful but critical comments, he's now blocked me.
