周五，来自“为未来而战”（Fridays for Future）的气候活动人士在德国70多个城市举行示威，要求总理弗里德里希·默茨的政府兑现国际气候融资承诺，并加快淘汰化石燃料。
Climate activists from Fridays for Future demonstrated in more than 70 cities across Germany on Friday, demanding that Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s government meet its international climate finance pledges and accelerate the phase-out of fossil fuels.
此次抗议以“偿还气候债务”为口号，也针对默茨缺席在安塔利亚举行的第31届联合国气候变化大会（COP31）。活动人士指责政府仅为海外气候措施提供了不完整的资金，却在国内大力投资新建燃气发电厂。
The protests, held under the slogan “Pay your climate debt,” also targeted Merz’s absence from the COP31 summit in Antalya. Activists accused the government of delivering only incomplete funding for climate measures abroad while investing heavily in new gas-fired power plants at home.
“为未来而战”的保拉·坎茨莱特尔表示：“总理弗里德里希·默茨甚至无法出席世界气候大会，这极其可耻。作为一个富裕国家，德国有责任最终向那些已经最深受气候危机之苦的国家支付急需的资金。每一欧元流入德国的化石燃气电厂，不如花在这些国家身上。”在气候融资方面，该组织指出，德国2025年提供了47亿欧元（约合52亿美元），而非承诺的60亿欧元（约合66亿美元）。发言人强调了德国作为工业化国家的历史责任。
“It is highly shameful that Chancellor Friedrich Merz cannot even show up at the world climate conference,” said Paula Kanzleiter of Fridays for Future. “As a wealthy country, Germany is called upon to finally pay the urgently needed money to the states that are already suffering most from the climate crisis. Every euro flowing into fossil gas plants in Germany would be better spent in those countries.”On climate finance, the group noted that Germany provided €4.7 billion ($5.2 billion) in 2025 instead of the pledged €6 billion ($6.6 billion). Speakers stressed Germany’s historical responsibility as an industrialized nation.
“为未来而战”的内勒·埃弗斯补充说，今年气候危机比以往任何时候都更加切身可感。“夏天，我们所有人在德国都亲身感受到了酷热，有1.6万人失去了生命。地球目前正朝着升温2.8摄氏度的方向发展，每增加一吨煤炭、石油和天然气都会进一步助长这场危机。这必须停止。”
Nele Evers of Fridays for Future added that the climate crisis had become more tangible than ever this year. “In the summer, all of us in Germany felt the heat ourselves, and 16,000 people lost their lives. The Earth is currently heading toward 2.8 degrees of warming, and every additional ton of coal, oil and gas fuels this crisis further. That has to stop.”
