Climate Action Munich
Away from coal, oil and gas
Munich City Council resolved back in June 1998 that “Munich should do no harm”, meaning Munich had a duty to become climate-neutral as soon as possible and end the damaging emissions that cause so much harm globally, regionally and locally.
Together with a strong and diverse network within the Bavarian capital city, we actively campaign to ensure the city keeps its promise.
The outcome of the local referendum in 2017 to close down the coal-fired power station, which we supported to a significant degree, revealed that the people of Munich also want more progress on climate-change mitigation. So we are campaigning for action on this local referendum, for the City Council and its subsidiary companies to divest itself of dirty power generation and commit to a complete exit from gas, as well as expansion of geothermal capacity.
