In the parallel of further demonstrations, including in Pinneberg on Drosteplatz and in Hamburg, Hanover, Bremen and Osnabrück, further demonstrations took place in parallel.

The movement emphasizes that Germany and the EU have a special responsibility after the United States exit.

claims for climate justice

The climate protection movement calls for compliance with the Paris climate protection agreement and strives to limit global warming to below 1.5 ° C compared to pre -industrial values. The following claims are directed to the German government in particular:

• Netonull emission status by 2035
• coal phase -out until 2030
• 100% renewable energy supply until 2035
• End of the subsidies for fossil fuels
• Introduction of a CO2 tax of € 180 per tonne CO2

In addition, the movement criticizes the plans of the coal group LEAG to promote 700 million tons of coal from Lusatia and calls for a special fund of 100 billion euros to manage the climate crisis. In the agricultural sector, "Fridays for Future" requires the internalization of the external costs and the promotion of CO2 sinks.

These different demands are essential components of the strategy to combat the climate crisis, which is described as acute by heat waves, floods and drought disaster. Before the Bundestag election 2025, requirements for a clear planning for the gas exit until 2035 and the taxation of super -rich and fossil corporations will also be raised. For the upcoming European elections 2024, it is required that climate protection in the EU should be a priority and that an exit from all fossil energies will be implemented by 2035.
