Hamburg – Because of a demonstration by several climate activists, the Hamburg Köhlbrand Bridge was closed on Monday morning. The police asked all road users on Twitter to bypass the bridge over an arm of the Süderelbe. The small group “Uprising of the Last Generation” says it wants to use its sharply criticized actions against food waste and for more climate protection. She is demanding a food rescue law from the federal government. Demonstrators had also glued themselves to the street with superglue and construction foam.
Sharp criticism from politics
After blockades on motorways, the initiative announced on Sunday that it would expand its activities to ports and airports if there were no concrete government commitments to implement a food rescue law by the evening. For their actions, the group received sharp criticism not only from drivers, but also from politics, because traffic and people could be endangered. It was also said that no political demand justifies breaking the rule of law. The police filed dozens of criminal charges.
