The thread misses that Germany shutting down its nuclear industry is part of what drove this push to use more coal.
This thread is more interesting than most books.https://twitter.com/JoanieLemercier/status/1110279448971132930 …
When I was little I was determined to always protect nature, stand against 'bad people' to save forests, animals, wilderness. 
As I grew up my convictions slowly faded, and I've done literally nothing.

It also forgets to mention that nearby forests were cut down to make room for wind parks - largely unnoticed by the public and without resistance by activists. Also, AFAIK, the journalist died not because of the police but because he climbed in the trees without a rope.

The thread reminded me of John McPhee's beautiful response on being asked what it's like to be an "environmental writer":pic.twitter.com/UcKoKm2Fvw

That thread just made me sad because of the anti-nuclear brainwashing in Germany that made the whole episode necessary.
