In the name of climate protection, left-wing protesters poured green paint into fountains in several German cities on Wednesday morning.
Members of the Extinction Rebellion group even managed to do this unhindered in the inner courtyard of HamburgCity Hall as they protested against the use of liquid gas during the ongoing energy crisis.
In addition to Hamburg, the extremists have also turned the water in fountains green in Berlin, Bonn, Essen, and Munich. Before that, they smeared the slogan saying “LNG – unfortunately not green on the floors.” In their view, the liquid gas use “in addition to environmentally harmful consequences also leads to neo-colonial exploitation and oppression.”
The action is part of the campaign week for climate protection celebrated by politicians and the media in Hamburg. There will be protests for seven days. The activists there want to draw attention to the consequences of the climate crisis and protest against the liquid gas terminals planned by the federal government.
