The activists of the “Last Generation” demand a word of power from Chancellor Olaf Scholz and a stop to oil drilling in the North Sea. They want to prevent climate collapse and are campaigning for a speed limit on German autobahns.
“We need drastic change now. We have to save oil instead of drilling for new ones! Simple ways would be a speed limit and free public transport,” said Lena Bonasera, one of the co-founders of “Last Generation”.
