Again one of your stupid nonsense posts.

Flight alone is close to 2% world wide emissions. That would actually be neglectable, if it was not about the height at which the planes fly.

Then all the other transportation comes on top.

In Germany total CO2 emissions by transport is 23%.

And your country: is far worse.

but they'll still go and have two or three kids. In absolute terms those two or three kids are the biggest factor.
No they are not.

When the kids are grown up, there won't be any ordinary ICE cars anymore.
Energy production will likely be 100% green.

Kids are not polluting the planet. Grand parents and parents did, and are still doing it.

If you want to point the finger do so, but point it at Gerhard Schroeder and Helmut Kohl, and note that both were from opposing political parties and both of them championed the end of the nuclear industry in Germany through systemic underinvestment.

That is double wrong.
Actually tripple wrong.

a) it is not the role of the government to invest into nuclear, so there is no underfunding. The plants made absurd earnings - why can the owner not invest himself?
b) Kohl was pro nuclear, but it was not his job to plan for investments - he was the farking Chancellor, not a industrial leader or policy maker for energy
c) Schroeder, Kuehnast, Tritin etc. got explicitly voted into office to exit nuclear power

Schroeder and co did their job. And Merkel, the traitor, reverted it.

This was basically the first time in German history, that a follow up government reverted the previous government's policies. On top of that: the enourmous win in the lections was about the question: to exit nuclear power for good!

What do you think how betrayed we Germans felt when she suddenly stood up and said: oh, btw. I will extend the life for all current reactors by 30 years!?

It took Fukushima, which made Merkel realize: if she does not follow the original plan, and hurry up, she has riots in the streets. No next Chancellorship.

On top of that: she also torpedoed the green revolution. Otherwise Germany's electricity would be 100% green since decades!

That decision was taken after the tsunami wrecked Fukushima and that happened in March 2011
That is wrong.

The original legislative vote took place on December 14, 2001, when the German Bundestag approved the plan to shut down all of the country's nuclear power plants within approximately 20 years.

Merkel reverted that vote.

And after Fukushima, she regretted it, and re-installed the exit.

I really wonder if you Murricans are all trolls, or some kind of brainded people?

How can it be that except "Anti China propaganda" no one of you knows anything about China?

In the recent 40 <--- fourty years, Chine planted 66 billion trees.

And since a decade they use robots for that. Plant something like a million trees per month.

Deforesting my ass.

Some other troll before you, claimed they have no environmental regulations. What a laugh.

After Japan they have strictest environmentale laws on the planet.

and literally every Uber driver drove an EV

That's because EVs are perfect for taxis. Many short distances, never far from a charging point and time inbetween rides where you can recharge in the supermarket parking lot while getting a bite to eat. And in the city, with stop-and-go traffic, EV are much better at handling that than ICEs who hate that. Plus the lower cost-per-km-driven matters even more when it's a profit margin thing.
