Dear Germany News Today

Germany will close down three of its last six nuclear power plants on Friday, while speeding up its transition to solar and wind energy.

Germany's phase-out of nuclear energy will only lead to the country missing its 2030 carbon emissions target, 25 leading foreign and German environmentalists, journalists and academics have written in an open letter to the German public. They call on German politicians to be "brave enough" to change legislation to at least postpone the shutdown of the country's reactors.
