Nuremberg (dpa / lby) - The Jesuit Father Jörg Alt, who recently took part in the climate protest again and again, would also go to prison for his conviction. He told the editorial network Germany (RND/Sunday) about the actions of the "Last Generation" climate group: "I admire these people immensely for their courage and selflessness. They did it right because these roadblocks get in the way of the car places, the symbol for our fossil Continue so." That triggered the discussion "that we need and that managed to put the climate issue back on the top agenda, despite Corona, the Ukraine war and all other things that are also important." Among other things, Alt is a pastor at the Catholic university community in Nuremberg.
The 61-year-old Catholic, who had made headlines in the past with his fight for a financial transaction tax, among other things, had recently defended the climate protests again and again. According to the RND, there are several investigations against him. He is ready to go to jail too: "I would rather go somewhere else than jail. But if society and politics would rather lock me up than listen to me, then I'll go to jail too."
