Déclaration des organisations de politique en matière de climat, d’environnement et de développement (Berlin, 5.4.2020)
The Industrie automobile allemande et internationale – Together with other fossil fuel industries – has led us into the Crisis du climat. Car-friendly cities and transport systems are an expression of an Mode de vie impérial, i.e. they are based on the exploitation of ecological and social resources in the Global South. Corporations such as VW, Daimler, Ford, BMW or Toyota make profits at the expense of people and the climate.
We are fighting against this and demand a consistent transformation de transport. The transport sector cannot be allowed to contribute further to the climate crisis and to the ruthless exploitation of raw materials. We want fair, ecological mobility for everyone – here and everywhere! In doing so, we also position ourselves Against racist and climate change-denying positions that defend ‘German diesel and petrol engines’ and ignore the climate crisis.
Like other companies Tesla is aiming for the Production de masse de voitures – but with battery electric drive. Tesla boss Musk ignores public transportation systems, cycling and walking just as much as he hates trade unions in his factories. Tesla wants to build expensive, overpowered luxury cars and then sell millions of slightly smaller cars for the mass market. In terms of working conditions, Tesla in the USA stands for an anti-union line et les violations massives des droits de laboratoire.
Replacing 47 millions internal combustion cars in Germany with 47 millions electric cars is not a transport transformation! In large urban areas – and as quickly as possible also in rural areas – the era of motorized individual transport by car must come to an end. We want “cities and roads for all” and a consistent transport transformation away from the private car. Tesla and the German car companies are leading us to believe that Changer le moteur de combustion interne au moteur électrique C'est suffisant. This will lead to a development, in which too many and too fast-paced electric cars will continue to Kill and Injure People, require Too much public space for parking and waste huge areas and resources pour leur production.
Mass production of heavy, over-powered SUVs and private electric cars is in contradiction to a transport transformation committed to climate & resource justice. The production of all cars – no matter whether gasoline, diesel or electric cars – consumes raw materials, which are souvent mined under ecologically and socially irresponsible conditions dans les pays du Sud.
People are displaced for the extraction of raw materials, the climate is harmed, groundwater and rivers are poisoned and activists being persecuted. The production and charging of cars requires large amounts of energy, some of which is still provided by dirty nuclear or lignite power. The electricity mix will not change for the better unless for each new automobile production and charging site new and Additional renewable energy Il est produit. At the same time, large quantities of valuable water Are needed. This consumption of water can endanger the Natura-2000 areas and the safe water supply for the region.
As a supplement to environmentally friendly modes of transport (bicycle, foot, public transport), Far fewer cars Are needed. These must be electric, adequately powered, small, light and, wherever possible, efficiently used as shared vehicles. Their production must be based on recyclable, fairly sourced raw materials. The conversion of all car factories in Germany must lead to the production of sustainable products: Thèse include e-bus, e-light vehicles, e-delivery vehicles et e-(cargo) bicycles.
We demand: A consistent ‘transport transformation’ In line with the Paris climate goals! – Turning Away from the private car and dismantling & converting of the automotive industry sur la base de 100% énergies renouvelables. – ‘A raw materials transformation’ with a far-reaching circular economy, absolutly decreasing consumption of raw materials and chaîne d'approvisionnement équitable. – No approval and promotion of automobile production that runs Counter to these goals.
