In a live interview a reporter from Welt24 spoke about riot tourism and said that environmental organizations had called for massive civil disobedience for the weekend. Both is bullshit!! Since I happened to be in the forest, I used the opportunity to jump into the live interview, grab the microphone and correct him on the spot! That saved me time for writing a letter to the editor. He later complained that this was not a good idea since it made him look stupid. But how could he look intelligent while passing bullshit information to the public? This started a new form of activism: Live coverage correction!<\/p>\n

Stop bullshiting, start reporting<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I haven’t found the interview online yet but if you do, please share. It was aired on September 13 some time between 10 and 12.<\/p>\n

Some of the media behaved in a strange way. One reporter told his colleagues that he had just switchedhis energy provider from RWE energy to innogy and the others explained to him that innogy was a subsidiary of RWE. I saw some litter in the area that reporters mainly used: Paperbags, plastic wrapping. Some journalists apparently forgot they were in a forest! The activists were shocked: “What? Even the police bring their own garbage bags by now, why can’t journalists?!”<\/p>\n

Logging Before the Logging Season<\/h2>\n

One month before energy giant RWE can lawfully log Hambacher Forst masses of old trees fall and tree houses are being evicted! I live in a country where government places the profit of a private energy company and an obsolete technology over climate protection and the needs of future generations!<\/p>\n

Tree houses without Fire Escape Stairs<\/h2>\n

Under extremely flimsy reasons the government started to cut masses of trees one month before the official logging time begins: the tree houses would not comply with fire safety regulations! Can any reason be more obviously be a pretext? In early September government declared the tree houses officially as “buildings” after it had officially stated tree houses were no buildings in 2014. The message spread on Wednesday night while I was in the forest: evictions would start the next morning. That’s why I decided to stay overnight. The next day police didn’t let people without press accreditation come into the forest anymore.<\/p>\n

I will upload my material successively on my Youtube<\/a> and Twitter<\/a> Channel as well as on my photo gallery<\/a>. I will also continue to report<\/p>\n
