We’re number one!

Not just “a leader.” We’re number one!

We’re number one in having the highest EU electricity prices! And in tanking economies, too. Do you think they could be related?

Germany is a leader in renewables, so why does it have one of the highest EU electricity prices?

Germany generated more electricity from solar and wind in 2025 than any other EU country – but its prices remain tied to volatile fossil fuels.

German households pay around a third more for electricity than the EU average, despite the country’s impressive efforts to ditch fossil fuels.

German of the day: Selbstmord

That means suicide.

In this case, of the industrial kind.

Germany’s Slow Industrial Suicide – The climate left is achieving its goal of de-industrialization.

If the road to economic hell is paved with good intentions, don’t expect to see many German cars driving on it. Green mandates and other regulations are killing jobs in the long-revered German auto industry, as a new report from an industry association warns.

Germany has lost some 100,000 auto-related jobs since 2019, says the German Association of the Automotive Industry, or VDA. Another 125,000, or one in six current jobs in the industry, are on track to disappear by 2035.

Because of the Iran war?

Nice try.

Germans have been cutting energy use for years. But this has been in direct response to Germany’s brain dead Green energy policies. Fun fact: They have the highest energy costs in Europe (in the world?). See the current German economic meltdown. “Current,” get it?

Survey: Two-thirds of Germans cut energy use in response to Iran war – Some two-thirds of German residents are consciously reducing their energy consumption in response to rising prices linked to the war with Iran, according to a survey published on Monday by comparison portal Verivox.

The representative poll found that 55% of respondents were trying to lower heating costs, while 52% were paying closer attention to electricity use and 56% said they switched off electronic devices instead of leaving them on standby.

Hamburg may be a wild town…

But this is getting out of hand.

Wolf Bites Woman in Altona: Police Capture It at Jungfernstieg – Police captured a wolf in downtown Hamburg on Monday evening. It had previously attacked a woman in Altona. This is the first attack by a wolf on a human in Germany since the species was reintroduced in 1998. This was confirmed by the environmental agency.

Germany won’t miss its climate targets for 2026, 2027, 2028…

Because their industries are dying, or already dead.

And this is primarily due to its climate emissions targets.

Germany misses climate targets as emissions barely fall in 2025 – Greenhouse gases dropped just 0.1% last year as environment minister criticises lack of improvement.

Greenhouse gas emissions in Germany have again missed targets set by the Climate Protection Act and barely fell at all in 2025.

Emissions decreased by just 0.1% last year compared to the previous year, according to data from the German Environment Agency.

Running on wind turbines and solar panels?

Good luck with that.

German start-up plans 30-megawatt AI data centre in boost to sovereign control – German start-up Polarise plans to build a new 30-megawatt artificial intelligence ​data centre that would double Germany’s domestically-run computing capacity as European nations push ‌to gain more control over critical tech infrastructure.

The facility, set to come online in the Bavarian town of Amberg in mid-2027, could eventually expand to 120 MW, the company told Reuters.

German of the day: Sich ins Knie schießen

That means to shoot yourself in the foot, only in German it’s the knee.

With the highest energy prices in Europe (in the world?), what choice does German industry have but move? Go Greens.

German auto industry in ‘crisis’ as investments, jobs move abroad, lobby says – Germany’s standing as an automotive industrial hub risks being hollowed out as investments and jobs drift abroad, an industry association warned on Tuesday, calling on Berlin and Brussels to focus on measures that spur growth.

“Germany is experiencing a huge crisis as a business location,” VDA President Hildegard Mueller said.

A VDA survey of small- and medium-sized German enterprises across the auto supply chain, presented by Mueller on Tuesday, showed that 72% of companies plan to dial back their investments in Germany, either by moving them abroad (28%), postponing them (25%) or cancelling them completely (19%).

The next 20,000 jobs gone

Could it be our ridiculously high energy costs? Nah.

Germany’s industrial engine sputters as Bosch axes 20,000 jobs – Rising unemployment rate piles pressure on Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s government.

German industrial giant Bosch on Friday confirmed plans to cut 20,000 jobs after profits nearly halved last year, underlining the mounting strain on Germany’s once-dominant manufacturing sector and increasing the pressure on politicians in Berlin to find a solution.

Official data released Friday also showed Germany’s unemployment rate, unadjusted for seasonal factors, rising to 6.6 percent — the highest level in twelve years. The number of unemployed people surpassed three million in January.
