Climate plaintiffs in Germany. Three families impacted by global warming, and also Greenpeace e.V. are taking legal steps for effective climate protection and file a complaint against the German government with the Berlin Administrative Court. The basis of the complaint: The Federal Government violates fundamental rights, if it does not take additional measures to achieve the German climate target for the year 2020. By failing to meet this target the Federal Government is furthermore violating European environmental law. As an environmental organisation, Greenpeace Germany is therefore suing for compliance with German and European environmental law.
