Last generation climate activists have sprayed Christmas trees with orange paint in several German cities. In Leipzig it hit a large, lavishly decorated tree in the Mädler Passage. The police then cordoned off the area. In Berlin, two trees were sprayed: on Leipziger Platz in front of the Mall of Berlin shopping center and not far from there in front of the Federal Council.

“Contemplating the catastrophe?”

According to the police, trees in Munich, Nuremberg and Oldenburg were also colored by the activists; According to Last Generation, there were also actions in Rostock and Kiel. The activists distributed the paint from fire extinguishers. They also showed posters in front of the Federal Council with slogans like “Consideration in the catastrophe? Charity = climate protection”.

Despite the “flashing lights, shiny jewelry and festive atmosphere,” climate change should not be forgotten, the group said on Instagram. The world is racing into a future full of catastrophes. You can’t hope for governments and corporations, so you take action yourself and engage in “civil disobedience,” the activists said.

They announced the next “mass occupation” for February 3rd in Berlin. Since the beginning of 2022, the last generation has been demonstrating for more climate protection with road blockades and other actions. Last year, members of the group sawed off the top of the Christmas tree in front of the Brandenburg Gate at a height of 15 meters. Investigations and trials are underway against many of the so-called “climate glue”, some of whom stick themselves to streets and objects with their hands. There have been several convictions in the past.
