Bus Drivers Strike With Climate Activists In 57 German Cities
Public transit workers across Germany have broken new ground by coordinating our contracts—nearly all of them nationwide have expired over the last four months—and shutting down bus systems with strikes in 57 cities.
To add to the pressure, we’ve done something new for our union and for Germany: we’ve formed an alliance between local transport workers and climate activists, including the students who have been leading massive school walkouts.
The devastating effects of climate change are already rocking Germany: major heat waves, flooding, and water shortages.
