A citizen criticized Carla Hinrichs, who, as a spokesperson for the Last Generation, has encouraged others to engage in blockades. She wrote that ten participants should pay 403,000 euros to Lufthansa today; two others would likely live at the subsistence level for 30 years according to a Cologne judge. While others paid the price for the morality represented by Hinrichs and its staging on social media, she herself traveled to the USA, the citizen wrote. According to this, Hinrichs does not consider a change in her own lifestyle necessary and does not even adhere to it herself. https://t.co/kHBOaaic5M #LetzteGeneration #Klimaschutz #SozialeGerechtigkeit (translated)

While other countries in the energy sector enforced their interests through deals, Germany chose a nuclear phase-out, a coal phase-out, a feminist foreign policy, and morality, the author wrote. According to him, the costs would be borne by people at the gas station and in supermarkets, as well as employees whose energy-intensive employers would have to close permanently. #Energie #Klimaschutz #Politik (translated)
