Human Chain Against Brown Coal Mining, Germany and Poland - News Access
About 7500 people from more than 20 countries stand hand in hand, demonstrating against further brown coal open-pit mining and for a real energy transition. They form a cross-border human chain, spanning eight kilometers between the communities of Kerkwitz in Germany and Grabice in Poland. Both places, as well as others, are in danger of falling victim to plans for open-pit mines in the region of Lusatia. The border is crossed at Groß Gastrose, where protestors wade into the Neisse River, thus creating an uninterrupted human chain. The Human Chain Protest was initiated by the local alliance of Klinger Runde, Greenpeace, BUND, Campact, Naturfreunden Deutschlands, Klima-Allianz, Berliner Energietisch, Anti-Atom Berlin, Arbeitskreis Öffentlichkeitsarbeit, Agenda 21 of the community of Schenkendöbern and the Polish citizens' initiative Stowarzyszenie Nie Kopalniodkrywkowej.
In original language:
Deutsch-polnische Menschenkette gegen Braunkohle - News Access
Kerkwitz: Gut 7500 Menschen aus über 20 Ländern demonstrieren Hand in Hand gegen weitere Braunkohletagebaue und für eine echte Energiewende. Sie bilden eine acht Kilometer lange, grenzüberschreitende Menschenkette zwischen den Ortschaften Kerkwitz in Deutschland und Grabice in Polen. Diesen und weiteren Orten in der Lausitz droht die Abbaggerung für weitere Tagebaue. Die Grenzquerung erfolgt in Groß Gastrose, wo die Demonstranten in den Grenzfluss Neiße waten und somit für eine geschlossene Kette sorgen. Initiiert wurde die Menschenkette vom lokalen Bündnis Klinger Runde, Greenpeace, BUND, Campact, den Naturfreunden Deutschlands, der Klima-Allianz, Berliner Energietisch, Anti-Atom Berlin, dem Arbeitskreis Öffentlichkeitsarbeit der Agenda 21 Gemeinde Schenkendöbern und der polnischen Bürgerinitiative Stowarzyszenie Nie Kopalniodkrywkowej.
