Jet-setting climate street-blocker glues himself to Frankfurt airport runway
by AR Göhring at EIKE
A year and a half ago, a climate street-blocking couple became infamous for blocking a federal highway near Stuttgart – “for the climate” – then traveling to Thailand (and Bali?) for months, skipping their court case to do so.
When online BILD and others made the double standards public, the perpetrator Yannick S. wrote a letter to the Berlin newspaper taz, in which he made a hilariously defiant statement. When it came to light that Yannick S. had dropped out of engineering school and was involved in the construction of combustion engines, it was quite clear that street-blocker and his partner were not the least bit concerned about “the climate”.
The couple probably only used the hip topic to pursue individual interests. This may be the assumption of stardom, which later leads to a well-paid, low-effort job at an NGO (“The work is done by others”, Helmut Schelsky 1974). Or it may be a certain pleasure in the suffering of the working population.
Nothing seems to embarrass Yannick S., which is why he glued himself to the tarmac at Frankfurt Airport after returning from his upper-class vacation under palm trees.
Delightful thought: what if there were a lot of left-wing green voters and other climate activists on the long-haul flights he stopped? After all, it’s the high summer holiday season, and the daughters of lawyers and sons of doctors don’t want to be stranded sweating on the tarmac. Instead they would rather enjoy their own prosperity under palm trees.
At least there is one ray of hope: Yannick S. has now been sentenced to a fine of over 100,000 euros for his frequent sticking, which he is unable to pay. If NGOs or collection campaigns don’t help out, the climate-blocking criminal could end up in prison as a substitute. How many years would that amount to?

” A year and a half ago, a climate street-blocking couple became infamous for blocking a federal highway near Stuttgart – “for the climate” – then traveling to Thailand (and Bali?) for months, skipping their court case to do so.”
For sure, glued to the cause; and that is the problem: they do not think.
How many years would that amount to?
NOT ENOUGH!
