  • Climate activists fear the worst when Germany's conservatives and Social Democrats begin to thrash out a joint climate policy for their future coalition government.

The article from Reuters discusses how Germany's climate activists are increasingly influencing the political landscape as the country approaches its 2025 elections. Despite the government's efforts to reduce carbon emissions, activists are pushing for more aggressive climate policies, particularly targeting the transport sector, which remains a significant source of emissions. The article highlights the tension between the ruling coalition, which includes the Greens, and the activists, who feel that the government's actions are insufficient. Key points include the ongoing protests by groups like Last Generation, the government's struggle to meet its climate targets, and the potential impact of these issues on the upcoming elections. The activists' strategies are also noted to be shifting towards more direct engagement with political parties to shape the coalition's agenda, reflecting a broader trend of environmental issues becoming central to political discourse in Germany.
