His hunger strike when the German government either:

1. Recognizes we will miss the 1.5 ºC target;
2. Cancels all financial debt of most affected countries by the climate crisis;
3. Limit highway speed to 100 km/h and extend the 9€ ticket for public transport.

++++++++ UPDATE ++++++++++
Thanks to public pressure, Wolfgang and members of @AufstandLastGen were released ahead of schedule. Jailing scientists and activists clearly shows that governments are intent on continuing climate inaction. We need everyone on the streets!

@ScientistRebellion "control" is an interesting and underrated metric by which to evaluate the state of the climate.

@ScientistRebellion it’s not reverse gear, but it is a new direction and none of the people with money want it. It’s not shrinking anything, but it is growing in a new way and the people who own everything don’t understand it and can’t control it. It will happen, but like all revolutions, it will be too late to save everybody. Sadly. But let’s keep pushing 👍

‘Open letter to the Scientists for future - Germany
(written on 10.11.2622)

Hy nase is Wolfgang Metzeler-Kick, in the Skip platform of Scientists for
Future Germany you can find me with ay project ‘negative emissions’. I an
writing this letter fron Stadethein Prison, whore I an in preventive
custody for continued peaceful civil disobedience. I do not understa
ay the majority of S4F do not present the criticality of the current
clinatic situation in the sharpness it deserves.

The concentration of C02 in the atmosphere is currently 420 ppa. In the
Sixth Assesssent Report of the IPCC, Working Group 1 presents the
emission pathway SSP1-1.9 as the patheay that still gives husanity the
best chance of survival. In 2619, this path should have been followed
but it was not. (1)

This emission pathway has a targe

id

of 358ppm C02 in 2158. (2)
nee 1990 this value has been exceeded, but in public constantly the

ir 20 is conveyed that everything would’ be under control

T > convinced that if it is clearly stated that oven if C02 would be
repoved fron the atnosphere on a gigaton scale (as denanded in SSP1-1.9),
the 1.5°C target can no Longer be met. So, if the deadly consequence of
tthe sober statenent "the 1.5 °C target has to be considered as failed"

if it is clearly stated that the self-heating mechanisa of this planet
can hardly be stopped anymore, this cannot possibly do more harm than the
present appeasenents!

I aa convinced that it is inevitable to state that the world clinate is
completely out of control and that humanity, if we want to survive, aust
shift into reverse gear as soon as possible

For reply Letters I an reachable until 2.12. under
