Support for Ende Gelände from celebrities

Ende Gelände will be one of the largest action of the European climate movement this year. Not just we like that but also Naomi Klein, Bill McKibben, Nico Paech and Friederike Habermann.

Naomi Klein, author of the climate movement manifest "This changes everything"

  • "Germany's rapid energy transition has been driven by the people, a victory that now serves as a model to the rest of the world. But as long as the German political class insists on using massive machinery to tear up the earth, producing the continent's single largest source of carbon emissions, that transition will remain woefully incomplete. These coalfields pose an existential threat to humanity, which is why our movements need to step in once again and shut them down. This August, there is no more important place to be."

Bill McKibben, Klimaaktivist und Gründer von 350.org

  • "I'm so glad to see people drawing a firm line in the coalfields, and stopping the planet's largest coal-digging machines. We're driven not by ideology but by physics: there's simply no way to burn all this lignite and keep the climate intact. These protesters are lifeguards for an endangered planet."

Friederike Habermann, economist and activist of the anti-globalization movements for many years

  • „Ich finde 'Ende Gelände' gut, denn anders als die G7 wissen sie, dass Worten Taten folgen sollten.“
