Germany: Climate activists cause flight delays, cancelations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last Generation activists hindered operations at airports in Hamburg and D\u00fcsseldorf. Some were reported to have glued themselves to areas near runways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLast Generation\u201d<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>climate activists<\/a>\u00a0on Thursday blockaded airports in the German cities of Hamburg and D\u00fcsseldorf, causing major disruption to flights.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Activists said they had cut through fences at both airports and that several people had glued themselves to the ground in the runway areas.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The protesters said their actions aim to highlight\u00a0the rising numbers of plane passengers, which are\u00a0causing increasing climate-warming greenhouse gas emissions in the\u00a0<\/em>aviation sector.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cInstead of presenting a concrete plan to prevent this and to reach the emissions-reduction target called for by law, the Transport Ministry is relying on \u2018technological flexibility,’\u201d the group stated.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser\u00a0pledged new security measures in light of the delays, saying that \u201cthere will soon be actual standards for operators of critical infrastructure.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis also includes airports, and this will continue to lead to special security at airports,\u201d she added.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How can anyone take climate hypocrites like Last Generation, Extinction Rebellion and Just Stop Oil seriously? Are they really so stupid they don\u2019t realise the clothes most of them wear, the glue they use, and the banners they carry, are mostly the products of fossil fuels? Maybe they don\u2019t think their personal hypocrisy matters?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Climate activists, if you want us to take your demands we abandon fossil fuel seriously, try cutting back on your personal use of fossil fuel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
