Germany set to miss net zero by 2045 target as climate efforts falter
Germany set to miss net zero by 2045 target as climate efforts falter
German goals to cut greenhouse emissions by 65% by 2030 are likely to be missed, meaning a longer-term net zero by a 2045 target is also in doubt, reports by government climate advisers and the Federal Environment Agency (UBA) show.

Wow what a surprise, guess brown coal isn’t good for the climate. Bunch of idiots those German politicians. They even tried to weaken that EU bill that bans the sale of new fossil fuel cars.
Voted in by German citizens.
Who have been subjected to targeted information warfare/propaganda for years.
And also, people straight up lie and deceive.
It's a very, veeery good thing the fucking CDU was voted out. No matter how much you hate the current government for one reason or another, at least they do something besides shoveling money into their pockets and maintaining status quo.
We'll see whether their ideas work out, but at least they have some.
I had high hopes for the current government, but I never imagined the FDP would be able to do so much damage with so few votes. The way it is now, I'm pretty disappointed. A lot of great ideas that were just shut down in their infancy.
It's not just the FDP though, Scholz is at least complicit with their bullshit. It is beyond me, how the SPD supports whatever Wissing does in the transportation department.
The fact that Scholz didn't even come to my mind when I thought about the German government says it all. I had no expectations and I was still disappointed.
Hey, the FDP has the most ambitious climate policies of all parties! At least so they said.
Awww, poor German people. Never learned to think for themselves. Just learned how to follow orders.
You don't realize how incredible funny (or sad.. depending on perpective) it is to see people like you parrot the same lie spoon-fed to you by lobbyists again and again while talking about other being too stupid to think.
This incredible post-factual world where popular narrative trumps reality is truely lost...
Lol, what an egoistic view of the world. "Everybody else is to blame but me". It's all those lobbyists, immigrants, bankers, politicians, nazis, antifa, that boogeyman over there! But me? Nah, I'm perfect and all my friends and family never do anything wrong. In fact, anybody who I can identify with is globally right.
Now that's sad.
Yes, it looks egoistic if you are this deluded as you are.
But we have real problems to solve and can't save every propaganda victim that refuses to accept reality because you run on the usual hateful narrative about Germany. Hey, I don't even blame you. Telling a lie about Germany any time you need to divert from some own issue is a well honored tradition in Europe (and thus wide-spread in media) and so I understand that you were trained to follow that pattern. It's sad (or funny... I still haven't decided...) none-the-less.
So you can cry about those imaginary egoistic Germans of yours all you want. The actual ones are massively building up renewables, are -contrary to your beloved lies- on a historic low in coal use. And this report is actually about the transport and construction sectors not matching their emission reduction goals (while sectors liker energy or industry -the actual sources of coal use- are easily fullfilling theirs... but that's not mentioned because -as I said before- energy and industry are not even remotely the topic of this report.)
What makes you think that person only thinks poorly of German low-information voters? Low-information voters are a plague around the world.

His comments right here in this comment chain I answered to?
"Voted in by German citizens."
"Awww, poor German people. Never learned to think for themselves. Just learned how to follow orders."Call me biased but explicitly calling out Germans in two comments in a row is a good indicator for that he is talking about.
Well, yeah, because we're talking about Germany. In other discussions, where it is my country and not Germany that's being discussed, there are plenty of similar comments.

Luckily we will get rid of coal soon.
I hope so...
