Even more voter movement charts.

Bonus: "Do you think Germany's economic situation is good or bad?"

That's one of the problems of the Greens, they and their voters are largely a relatively wealthy urban bubble who see three trees and think that's nature. That's why a lot of their environmental policy is based on greenwashing shit like CO~2~ certificate trading and subsidies to new electric cars only rich people can afford in the first place.

CO~2~ certificates don't attempt to greenwash, but to artificially give pollution a price. That way companies have a financial incentive to lower their CO~2~ pollution. And at the end of the day money is all companies care about.

The whole system is a joke if there's too many certificates around, though, for whatever reason.
