A protester calls for a paramedic while another protester, who appeared to have been pepper sprayed in the face by riot police, sits on the ground during clashes near the Lützerath settlement near Erkelenz, Germany. A protest march of thousands of people who turned violent moved to Lützerath and was stopped by the police. Demonstrators demanded climate justice. Police have in recent days evicted environmental activists who have occupied the derelict settlement of Lützerath and are trying to prevent the demolition of Lützerath which will make way for an expansion of the adjacent Garzweiler II opencast mine. The North Rhine-Westphalian state government of CDU and Greens has approved the demolition and expansion of the mine and at the same time announced an accelerated phase-out of coal-fired power generation in the state from 2038 to 2030. Other nearby settlements, which were also slated for demolition, are now spared, although critics point out that Germany has sufficient power generation capacity and does not need the coal lying beneath Lützerath.
