Fridays for Future will be on strike in more than 100 locations nationwide on March 1st. The Kempten, Kaufbeuren and Füssen locations in the Allgäu will be affected.

The movement joins the demands of employees for good working conditions and is calling for investments in public transport amounting to 100 billion euros. Despite the urgent need to reduce emissions, emissions in the transport sector have been stagnating for around twenty years. In order to close the gap to the climate target, a doubling of public transport capacity by 2030 would be necessary.
