82% Of Berlin Voters Refused To Support 2030 Climate Neutrality
But don’t expect the climate radicals to go away. They’ll be back at it soon enough. | Last Sunday’s “Berlin Climate Neutrality By 2030” referendum failed resoundingly despite the more than a million euros spent in a massive run-up campaign that included plastering the city with posters, concerts by famous performers, huge support and propaganda by the media, and hefty donations coming from activists in the USA. Once the dust of the referendum had settled, it emerged that the “yes” side fell way short of the quorum of 608,000 votes needed to pass the measure. Only 442,210 cast a vote in favor, which represents only 18 percent of Berlin’s eligible voters. The activists expected a far greater turnout. 82 percent voted ‘No’.
