Climate Group 'Letzte Generation' Announces Name Change and Strategic Shift

The group plans to abandon disruptive protests like road blockades, aiming instead to build community resilience and foster democratic engagement.

The climate activist group 'Letzte Generation' has announced it will change its name, citing the belief that society is already experiencing the effects of climate tipping points.
The group plans to move away from controversial actions such as road blockades and glue-based protests, which have drawn significant public backlash.
Future efforts will focus on fostering community support, social justice, and preparing for climate-related crises, according to spokesperson Carla Hinrichs.
The organization intends to maintain its commitment to climate activism but will shift to less confrontational and more inclusive protest strategies.
This decision follows internal reflection on the group's effectiveness and the challenges posed by legal actions, public criticism, and activist fatigue.
