🌍 The -90% emissions target for 2040 is at risk
⚠️ 10 Member States want to weaken it – through international offsets (like those in Germany’s coalition agreement), concessions regarding nuclear energy, carbon sinks, CCS, emissions trading tweaks, or even less ambitious mitigation pathways!
🇩🇪 Germany/CDU is not leading – it’s enabling backsliding
Meanwhile, under the banner of “cutting bureaucracy,” a wave of deregulation is coming:
📉 After the Supply Chain Act and CSRD Omnibus, next up are agriculture Omnibus and then probably environment Omnibus 👀
🛑 Conservatives are pushing hard to reverse the combustion engine phase-out
⏬ Fleet limit rollbacks passed fast – because even progressives voted yes to avoid worse outcomes
💸 The ETS2 Social Climate Fund? Still toothless.
No plan yet to turn it into a real tool for fair climate policy – and key ETS supporters like Peter Liese (EPP) are losing influence.
And let’s be honest:
🔥 The firewall against the far right is gone.
In Parliament, the EPP is voting alongside far-right parties. Last week in Strasbourg, CDU voted with AfD – a party now officially labeled extremist by German intelligence. Let’s scandalise, so that people notice!
📢We must not look away. We must make this public.
Now is the time for pressure – not silence.
