3 Catholic churches in Germany are slated for destruction due to the expansion of the Garzweiler coal mine—in addition to 20 villages the mine already swallowed up. If this coal is mined & burned, it will be impossible for Germany to meet its 1.5°C commitment. #KirchenDenMenschen
ALT A graphic with a church being demolished in the background. Atop the photo says "Stop destroying churches and communities with coal mines. Hashtag kirchen den menschen."
