The Social Democratic Party (SPD), part of Chancellor Merkel's coalition, has proposed changes to the constitution to establish a shared mission for adapting to climate change and protecting nature. The proposal includes measures such as a national heatwave action plan, changes to urban planning laws, and worker protection against extreme temperatures. The amendment would require federal participation in financing local missions and ensure long-term climate measures.

The Greens support the idea but want more clarity, while the radical leftist Left Party calls it 'empty promises' and the far-right AfD rejects the concept entirely due to their skepticism toward climate change.

Germany: Debate on possible revision of constitution due to heat wavesGermany is considering revising its constitution to better coordinate and fund climate change policies amid extreme heatwaves disrupting daily life. The proposal, led by the Social Democrats (SPD), aims to include a clause emphasizing 'shared missions' for adapting to climate change and preserving nature. This would require federal funding for local and state initiatives and ensure long-term climate measures. The SPD has outlined a national action plan against heat, changes to urban planning laws, and worker protection plans under extreme temperatures. However, the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) remains skeptical, questioning the financial implications and distribution of powers among ministries. Support from conservatives is crucial for the constitutional amendment, which requires a two-thirds majority in the lower house. The Greens have expressed willingness to support the proposal if there is consensus, while the far-left Left Party calls it 'empty promises,' and the far-right AfD outright rejects the idea due to skepticism toward climate change.

The 'Volksbühne Berlin' theater and the organization 'Each One Teach One' (EOTO), which focuses on anti-racism work, had planned a swimming event for Black youth but canceled it due to safety concerns. The pool, known as 'Volksbad,' was temporarily open to the public during the theater’s renovation period. However, EOTO requested exclusive access for Black individuals on August 14, which led to backlash. Some politicians criticized the move as discriminatory, with one CDU member stating, 'I cannot go to the pool because I am white.' Left-wing parties like the SPD and the Left Party opposed racial discrimination, while right-wing groups such as AfD accused the initiative of promoting apartheid and demanded the cancellation of public funding for such activities.

Projekt, koji je bio dio aktivnosti udruge Each One Teach One, bio je zamijenjen s otvaranjem bazena za svaku javnost. Kritici, uključujući političare iz raznih stranaka, osudio su odluku kao rasističnu i upozorili na potencijalne rizike za djecu i tinejdžere.
