1. The SPD-Green-FDP coalition has agreed on a new building energy law....that lays out a ban on natural gas/oil heating systems.
Start? 1 Jan 2024.
Basic principle? Whatever new system you install...."must be operated with 65 percent renewable energies."
What happens now? There's to be a massive (I would suggest monumental) effort going on with heat technicians....probably working 16 hours a day....to get oil and natural gas new systems delivered and installed prior to 1 Jan 2024.
This '65-percent' view? Its confusing and will lead to lawsuits.
2. I noted from Hamburg....the 'Last Generation' activists have now gone and said that the local Hamburg police are torturing them....as they remove them from the glue-action.
3. The CDU political party invited ARD/ZDF public TV folks to come and give a 'talk'. It was probably ill-advised.
Public TV folks show up....questions come up, and ARD/ZDF go to the position that they don't need to evolve/reform/downsize. At some point, 18-year old student stands up and asks something to the effect....'weren't they teaching the public also how not to evolve/reform'?
Somewhat comical but they intentionally showed up to defend themselves.
4. German Minister of Health came out yesterday to say that cannabis-legalization will come shortly....but be in a very moderate form.
Oddly, he says that this would be in a experimental situation....only in certain communities, as a 'start-up'. Problem here? Well....EU law is still standing there and a problem. One might suspect the EU to halt this trend.
