Our own Wolfgang Metzeler is on his 16th day of hunger strike in prison. This is his open letter to Scientists for Future calling them to level with the public. He was put in preventive prison along with other 12 people from @AufstandLastGen .

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.

"I am convinced that it is inevitable to state that the world climate is completely out of control and that mankind, if they want to persist, must shift into reverse gear as soon as possible." #ClimateEmergency #LevelWithUs #DebtForClimate #DecarbonizeTransport
++++++++ 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!
