Germany's far-right AfD wants to revive coal and nuclear power and curb non-EU immigration. Businesses in eastern Germany warn that its policies could harm the economy.
Nuclear power isn’t green energy; you may support that political-driven opinion, but if you inform yourself you will quickly find out that by all parameters (CO2 across the entire chain) it definitely isn’t green or CO2 neutral. it also won’t stop climate change, as Germany would need a dozen reactors, and executing such a project in Germany easily takes 20 years (Germany is famous for its bureaucracy), by far too late to rescue the world from disaster. on top of that, please read the party program of the AfD (which I have done); their approach to climate change is 19th century at best - I won’t go into details of their blatant racism and Voelkische right extremist ideas - large parts of this party leadership (Eg Höcke) want to introduce a Putin- or Hitler-like fascist state in Germany.
DW is not innocent with their headlines, they too make the polical landscape worse.
In the first sentenceof the article that the majority on fediverse and reddit dont read is this:
“Germany’s far-right AfD wants to revive coal and nuclear power and curb non-EU immigration.”
So the AFD (im not german) isnt 100% against green energy which Nuclearpower is.
