After the 2021 German federal election, the coalition government led by Olaf Scholz emphasized climate action. However, three years later, climate protection has fallen down the list of priorities, overshadowed by topics like irregular immigration and economic stagnation. CDU leader Friedrich Merz expresses a desire to dismantle Germany's wind turbines, advocating for nuclear fusion despite the lack of recent advancements. This shift indicates a troubling trend where climate goals, such as a 65% reduction of greenhouse gases by 2030, are not prioritized, raising concerns about the future of climate policy in Germany.
The fact that the escalating climate crisis is not among the parties' top three issues in this election campaign is incomprehensible and irresponsible.
Incoming Chancellor Olaf Scholz did not object to being called the 'Climate Chancellor' as climate change was a top issue during the election.
Merz believes that if things are done right, we can dismantle the wind turbines again because they are ugly.
Last year, renewable sources accounted for around 56% of German energy production, contrasting sharply with the growing focus on other issues like immigration.
