Germany’s emissions hit 70-year low as it reduces reliance on coal
(www.theguardian.com)
Its easy when you outsorce more and more industry to countries who don’t regulate emissions.
You can not outsource certain emissions like the electricity grid, transport within the country and heating. Also Germany is a massive exporter of industrial products.
So, still twice the co2 emission of France nuclear based energy production. Good job ecology nerds.
or 60% more per capita and propably around 18% more then the EU per capita.
What do you expect from a country most famous for genocide and killing millions in two World Wars?
What point are you trying to make and how is it related to the holocaust?
If you’re adding the context that basically says “it’s all bogus”, why not adjust the headline accordingly? This makes it seem like Germany actually did something to protect the climate.
Yeah, we wrecked the economy by trapping it in dead end technologies and killing off innovations for decades under conservative government. Degrowth like a champ!
