Fridays for Future
The “Fridays for Future” movement in Germany calls for an exit from coal by 2030 and a completely sustainable energy supply as well as the so-called net zero by 2035.
Coal power is to be switched off, subsidies for fossil fuels ended and the CO2 tax introduced – with the aim of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees and complying with the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement.
