Berlin, June 04.03.2023, 9, 20:XNUMX a.m – Supporters of the last generation before the tipping points today soaked the three meter high glass sculpture “Basic Law 49” in “petroleum”. The work of art near the Bundestag building shows the 19th article of fundamental rights of the German Basic Law in the original version from 1949.
Lina Johnson, Last Generation spokesperson clarified: “Burn oil or protect fundamental rights? In 2023 only one of the two will work.”
Judith Beadle, who took part in today's protest, added: “Burning petroleum is leading us to climate hell. In climate hell there is no human dignity, no freedom and no right to life.”

The federal government does not protect our fundamental rights:
Im Judgment of the Federal Constitutional Court on the climate lawsuit 2021 is it [called: “The state’s obligation to protect resulting from Article 2, Paragraph 2, Sentence 1 of the Basic Law also includes the obligation to protect life and health from the dangers of climate change.” But instead of protecting its population, the federal government is fueling the climate catastrophe. According to the Climate Protection Act, it does not plan to become climate neutral until 2045, while we The 2030 degree barrier will be broken by 1,5. From this point on we are in acute danger, to exceed six of the irretrievable climate tipping points – Basic rights can then no longer be granted.
