The RWE Group has not filed a complaint and the police do not know who the two men are. They had dug under the hamlet of Lützerath, which was to make way for opencast mining. Her hiding place is now closed.There will be no criminal consequences for the two tunnel occupiers from Lützerath: According to the Aachen police, the RWE Group has not filed a complaint against the men. The police therefore do not know the identity of the activists,...
Environmentally conscious citizens agree with climate activists: Mankind must move away from fossil fuels. Street blockades, pasting campaigns in museums and, most recently, violence against the police in Lützerath go too far for many people. Activists, on the other hand, are not satisfied with the political measures against climate change. For many of them, the Greens' course is also an unacceptable compromise. source site
comment by Johanna poundsYou may or may not like the "last generation" actions, those "I'm glued to the street" actions or throwing mashed potatoes at iconic paintings. However, the discussion about this often obscures the view of a quite justified demand by the activists, namely the introduction of a climate-friendly speed limit. The traffic light had rejected this in its coalition agreement last year. But now the "last generation" is getting state support from an authority. The Federal Environment Agency...

Three climate activists are on trial again on Wednesday. The members of "Extinction Rebellion" (XR) demonstrated in April during the general meeting of the reinsurance group "Munich Re" on Munich's Königstraße for the immediate stop of all insurance for oil and gas projects and the exit from all investments in fossil energy production. The insurance company had reported her for trespassing, and the Munich public prosecutor's office had applied for penal orders. Some protesters had not accepted these.Open detailed viewProtest...
column by Heribert PrantlIn a democracy nobody is infallible - not the Federal President, not the Parliament, not the Federal Constitutional Court either. The phrase "Roma locuta, Causa finita" is a legal tenet in the Roman Catholic Church; Saint Augustine is said to have invented it in the 4th century. It says that one thing is done when the pope has spoken in Rome, the highest authority in the church: his decision is final, there is no more room for...
North Rhine-Westphalia's Interior Minister Herbert Reul on Thursday raised serious allegations against some of the approximately 35,000 demonstrators who took part in protests against the destruction of the village of Lützerath in the Rhineland last Saturday. The CDU politician reported to the interior committee of the Düsseldorf state parliament that some climate activists had deliberately tried to steal their service weapons from police officers. He rejected allegations of excessive police violence. According to Reul, the civil society part of the...
"Have you heard, Greta is here": This sentence could be heard on every corner on Thursday morning at the World Economic Forum in Davos. The Spaniards at the next table had noticed, the Italians at the coffee bar, the Nigerians in the queue in front of the cloakroom. No wonder: every time the Swedish climate activist has spoken in Davos, the powerful of the world have been prepared for something. Many here still remember their brilliant "Our house is on...
from Ronen Steinke, BerlinIt was December 13, at five in the morning. The apartment of Carla Hinrichs, the spokeswoman for the "Last Generation", in the Lower Saxony district of Diepholz was in darkness. When police officers walked into her apartment that morning, flashlight in one hand, search warrant in the other, and as they began to rummage through the 25-year-old's closet, they had a strong allegation with them. This claim read: A "criminal organization" had formed within the climate protest...
