To pick out just Germany, when in fact the G20 are making up 81% of the worlds polution...
Yes, us people living in the EU27, USA, Australia, Canada are using the most/per head, I know that = tell that the people, which don't want to change their habits =
like online shopping, fast fashion, coffee to go, buying all stuff/tents, clothes, sleeping bags, seats = just for one festival and leave it there/dump it, after the festival is done = brilliant NOT,
... lots of packaging for all those "online shopping actions", streaming = one third of worlds energy consumption is used by the inet/servers etc, digital currency= uses xx-times more energy than anything else, the ever getting bigger cars/EVs included/more horsepower..buying cheap stuff from online platforms from all over the world, etc = not helpfull either
....if every person on this planet would use as many resources than us in the western countries = we would need 2,6 planets 😒
It's ALL up to US, to change that = the CONSUMERS ...

Well, the whole Region was flooded at x-mas 2023, same as most of Lower-Saxony/Bremen/Hamburg.....when the sea level is too high due to inlands going storms, pushing the sea water towards the coast lines/inlands.... therefor higher high-tide levels, higher waves, hence the rivers can't get rid of their water-overloads into the sea, get pushed back ... water levels in the rivers/ditches etc raise, caused by permanent heavy rain for weeks, groundwater levels raising, dykes get soft due to permanent heavy rain..,, and had to be stabilised with sand bags, or weeks ongoing heavy rain = floodings happen...
It's a terrible "chain reaction"...
Greetings from Bremen 🖐
