By dumping our trash in Polish landfills.

It’s kind of like how we got rid of nuclear energy here. We shut down all our nuclear power plants and then import nuclear power generated in France. If only the rest of the world would follow our example… But they can’t. For some reason. The hell if we know why.

Poland threatens to sue Germany over dumped waste – The Polish government says it may be forced to take Germany to court over waste, some of it toxic, being transported and stored in unauthorized landfills.

I would trust the Germans here…

They’re the undisputed champions in the field.

Ukraine counter-offensive too slow because they’re not doing it properly, Germans claim – Senior British military officials dismiss claims in leaked report by Bundeswehr because they just don’t ‘ring true.’

Nobody wants them.

Tesla is lapping German automakers in the global EV race – even in Germany.

Germany’s automakers announced bold plans the last several years to shift to electric cars and challenge Tesla Inc.’s dominance. Instead, they’re only falling further behind.

Tesla delivered 889,015 cars in the first half of this year, more electric vehicles than Volkswagen AG, BMW AG, Mercedes-Benz Group AG and Porsche AG sold combined.

More glue-ins, please!

More street blockades! This stategy is working out brilliantly.

Support for climate movement halves as Germans reject street blockades – survey Climate & CO2 Society.

Germans’ support for the climate movement has halved following the rise of highly controversial street blockades by more radical activists, shows a survey by More in Common Germany, an initiative that researches social cohesion. “All parts of society are much more critical of the climate movement today than they were two years ago – it has not gained or maintained ground with anyone,” says the organisation.

That means lion or lioness.

Until it means wild boar or wild bore.

Escaped ‘lioness’ in Berlin was most likely a wild boar, mayor says – Experts reach conclusion after analysing video that had triggered the original search.

The sound of a lion roaring in the Zehlendorf district inside Berlin’s borders turned out to have been played through bluetooth speakers by a group of teenagers…

Haven’t had one of these in ages…

One of these fake animal sightings in the summer in Germany (search above for “Sommerloch” or “silly season”).

You know, these “scary” none-news news reports used as filler during summer vacation season (journalists are allowed to go on vacation here, it seems)? This time it’s a lion on the loose or something.

Germany: Suspected lioness on the loose outside Berlin – Residents of a neighborhood near the German capital have been told to stay indoors while authorities search for what they believe is a lioness on the loose.

Inflation and the what?!

How on Earth did this get through the German Media Brain Police Censorship Office?

German food banks in crisis – Inflation and an influx of refugees have put growing pressure on food banks. Will the German state step into the breach?

But why do food banks exist in a country like Germany in the first place? Can the German state step in to explain that?

German food banks are there to help people living in poverty, namely those who have less than 60% of the median net income at their disposal. In Germany, going by this definition, around 13 million people are considered to live below the poverty line.
