Alle grossen Brücken in London blockiert:

" .. The campaign first hit the headlines recently when the former archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams was one of almost 100 academics to come out in favour of the Extinction Rebellion.

In a letter published in the Guardian they said: “While our academic perspectives and expertise may differ, we are united on this one point: we will not tolerate the failure of this or any other government to take robust and emergency action in respect of the worsening ecological crisis. The science is clear, the facts are incontrovertible, and it is unconscionable to us that our children and grandchildren should have to bear the terrifying brunt of an unprecedented disaster of our own making.” .."

Emissions Gap Report

The goal of the Paris Agreement on climate change, as agreed at the Conference of the Parties in 2015, is to keep global temperature rise this century to well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. It also calls for efforts to limit the temperature increase even further to 1.5 degrees Celsius.

The annual UN Environment Emissions Gap Report presents an assessment of current national mitigation efforts and the ambitions countries have presented in their Nationally Determined Contributions, which form the foundation of the Paris Agreement.

"Deutschland hat sich im Jahr 2012 im Ressourceneffizienzprogramm (ProgRess) zum schonenden Umgang mit natürlichen Ressourcen bekannt. Wo stehen wir in Deutschland sechs Jahre nach seiner Verabschiedung? Das Umweltbundesamt unterstützt die Umsetzung von ProgRess unter anderem mit diesem Bericht zur Nutzung natürlicher Ressourcen in Deutschland, der nach 2016 zum zweiten Mal erscheint. Darin analysieren wir neue Zahlen über die Zusammenhänge von Rohstoffentnahme, Rohstoffhandel, der Rolle der Wirtschaft und des Konsums."
