class or climate fight? Thursday in Leipzig

Before the global climate strike, Leipzig is also about the importance of the protest - and the synergies of different interests. In addition, a major fire has employed the fire brigade and at 11 a.m. many people were warned of cell phones and sirens: Thursday at a glance.

Dear readers,

social justice and climate protection - does that fit together? Many don't believe that. But in Leipzig these two concerns should be brought together instead of standing in the way: "We drive together" is the initiative.

For this, students, trainees, bus drivers and tram drivers come together. They want to advance the turnover of traffic together. Forcing the expansion of the Leipzig public transport. Create better working conditions for the employees at LVB. Josua Gerner met the group and learned how the collaboration works.

"I always touch this campaign that I met people with whom I would otherwise not sit in a round." (Lena, the student participates in "We drive together")

It is also about clearing prejudices. For example, "climate activists" equate some with the last generation. Many do not support this type of protest - even with the LVB.

Nevertheless, both sides want to work together - and on Friday, to the global climate strike, take to the streets together. Hundreds of participants are expected in Leipzig.
