German Economics and Climate Protection Minister Robert Habeck desperate measures to save energy are costing even more to the collapsing economy.
Since September 1st, all illuminated billboards have to remain switched off at night and for most of the day. Between 10 p.m. and 4 p.m., “illuminated or light-emitting advertising systems” should not be operated, according to the Ordinance to Secure the Energy Supply on Short-Term Measures (EnSikuMaV) by Economics Minister Robert Habeck (Greens). This is how electricity is to be saved during the energy crisis. But the implementation is apparently not as easy as the ministry imagined.
On the one hand, this is due to the sheer number of illuminated billboards. Around 92,500 advertising systems are affected by the lighting ban. The companies are making an effort, but the regulation cannot be implemented that easily in practice.
"By far the largest part of the systems affected are analog advertising media that have so far been equipped with an automatic twilight function," says managing director Kai-Marcus Thäsler. "This twilight control must be replaced by an electrician with a timer on each individual area."
In addition, the lighting in all glazed advertising systems is a heat source, especially in the wet and cold season, which prevents the display panels from fogging up and freezing over. "In order to prevent permanent damage to the systems, heating systems would have to be installed instead of the lighting, but their energy requirements would be many times greater," argues the FAW managing director. This would finally reduce the meaning of the Energy Saving Ordinance ad absurdum if such heating systems were actually installed.
According to the FAW, there is a lack of both the necessary materials and the skilled workers to quickly carry out the necessary work.
why don't they just wanna buy the god damn gas? I would understand if they wanna virtue signal, that they don't want to buy as much gas in the future. But it really really doesn't have to be right the fuck now.

They want to quickly deindustralize Germany for some vague climate-ideological reasons.

>Us marketers and advertisers need to be exempt from the heating and energy bans because uh
because goyim, now watch our ad! :^)
Can't wait for germans to start throwing rocks through all of them in retaliation
92500 billboards is like 10 5g towers of electricity consumption
Isaiah Bell
they only have that one forest

A simple solution is to just outlaw and remove those stupid things that make cities look ugly. But saying no to advertising jews is just too antisemitic or something.
it sure looks like something like that is going on, but then again. I mean these people are really really stupid.
Sebastian Mitchell
The guy in charge, habeck, actualky devoutly follows a fringe "economist" who proposes exactly that.
The goal is to switch everythi g off, then force people into accepti g a garbage living standard, not joking. Corona made our politicians lose whatever marbles they had left, the fact that normies accepted the mask just like that made them go into full megalomania
Luis Rogers
>92500 billboards is like 10 5g towers of electricity consumption You know what you need to do user.
German politicians want to lower the standard of living for the benefit of globohomo. Germans think their suffering is temporary and will ultimately bring their victory. Both the citizens and politicians have gotten arrogant from decades of being able to swing their dicks around and are incapable of coming to terms with their position in the world today.

If you ban advertisement, how are you going to push miscegenation, trannies, vaccines, CO2-phobia, etc.?
Xavier Parker
Well then, seems like it's high time to ban advertising in the streets. I can hear the kvetching already.
What the fuck? This isn't even sensible. Different circuits will control the lights and heat. A big lighted sign needs its own big 15 amp power supply.

>Corona made our politicians lose whatever marbles they had left Wrong. You had retarded politucians appointed to lead you off the precipice of the Great Reset just in time for the COVID hoax. They are the fall guys that would make normies beg for a globogov.
Aaron Sullivan
They're a renewable energy source too.
Nolan Rivera
>Why don't they just burn their politicians? They almost did, Germany has had a few instances of angry, torch wielding mobs showing up to politicians houses over the last two years.
A few more pushes and there's a good chance they'll go all the way.
Grayson Murphy
Remember when India ran out of oxygen during COVID? Germany will be like that but with gas.
>sorry the kebab store is out of gas, we can not make kebab

They’ll just contact you directly on the zog box in your pocket. Everyone will get a notification when it’s time to sign up for your 9th jab of the head or turn off heaters to help climate change. It’s only a matter of time before the plebs are updated with regular fact checks too.
The oven technology was lost, all documents had been destroyed. It would be a very painful process to build it back.
Chase Wilson
No they are not The Germans are stupid The Jews which are swindling them are the smartest people on earth Your race will go extinct thinking you are heroes when in reality you are fools It's not just the Jews either, every race is working together against whites
Cameron Ortiz
Habek 'was' a Kommunist party memer in his ealy adult life. So what did u expect ?!
William Ramirez
What will we do without super bright and annoying ads? Russia wins.
Hudson Richardson
but why would these neon signs need to heat up city streets? lmao
Jordan Miller
Oh my, if only someone had told them their country was going to be turned into a shit hole... oh well.
>there is a lack of both the necessary materials and the skilled workers to quickly carry out the necessary work. They should have imported more electricians.
Samuel Moore
No idea why, but the most plausible explanation in my opinion is that the Americans want to punish Germany and this was the perfect chance. The US dislikes the fact that Germany is an industrial powerhouse with a huge surplus of money in its coffers. The Yankees also resent that they have been paying for German defense while Germany could just focus on industry and commerce without spending much on defense. Trump explicitly called out the Germans and wanted everyone in Europe to spend more in NATO defense. During the Trump presidency, Merkel became increasingly emboldened to pursue an independent foreign policy and sought closer ties not only with Russia but also with China. Biden may hate the MAGA crowd but he also champions "America First" in his own way, so he did not let this chance slip. Germany (and the EU more generally) had to sanction Russia because it was expected of them. Germany has been relying on Russian gas for a long time, and the Germans even tried to complete Nord Stream 2 against the wishes of the US. Now that pipeline lies there, fully completed but never used, as a monument of submission to US geopolitical ambitions. US companies have been making crazy profits by selling expensive LNG to Europe while Nord Stream 2 collects dust. So this war (that the US provoked) gave the Yankees the chance to force Germany to undergo a test of loyalty. Germany had to sanction Russia under this exceptional circumstances, or else the Germans would have been accused of being pro-Putin and anti-Atlanticist.
