CDU Climate Miracle in the Harz: Outgoing Minister-President Sven Schulze Delivers a Glorious Parting Gift! 700 Jobs Wiped Out – and the World Is Saved!While others are lamenting heat-related deaths, Saxony-Anhalt is celebrating its greatest climate success in years: The energy-hungry BOHAI foundry in Harzgerode is dying. 
Fantastic! Outgoing Minister-President Sven Schulze (CDU) has delivered yet another wonderful parting gift! Harzgerode Saves the Global Climate: At Last, an Energy-Intensive Aluminum Foundry Is Allowed to Die – and Citizens Can Enjoy NatureWhat a triumph of climate policy! On January 31, 2027, the Bohai aluminum foundry in Harzgerode will close its doors for good. Around 550 direct jobs, and well over 700 positions in total when dependent businesses (Schlote and others) are included, will disappear. An industrial site with a proud history spanning more than 150 years in the Harz Mountains is being wiped off the map. And this is, of course, a great success.Outgoing Minister-President Sven Schulze (CDU) personally made the insolvency his top priority. He traveled to the site, spoke to the workforce, held talks with VW, and searched for investors. He put on the act of a caring regional leader who could get things done. Apparently, it worked wonderfully. The search came to nothing, orders (especially from the main customer, Volkswagen) failed to materialize, and energy costs for the smelting plant and casting machines did the rest. Saxony-Anhalt has moved another step closer to its climate targets: A company this energy-intensive, along with the suppliers surrounding it, is shutting down or will soon be shutting down. Less aluminum casting for transmissions, chassis, and bodywork – even if it's for electric cars – means less energy consumption and fewer emissions. Mission accomplished. Basic Income Support Instead of Shift Schedules: The Real Holiday Paradise for Former Workers!700 people who no longer have to commute to work. 700 families who consume less, take fewer holidays, and consequently generate less CO₂. The unemployed finally have time to enjoy the nature right on their doorstep. They can live all year round in a place where tourists pay a fortune to spend their holidays. A dream come true for all Green Party voters in the big cities, who struggle through rush-hour traffic on electric scooters and have to let artificial intelligence schedule their days for them.The Harz region is, after all, famous as a holiday destination. Hiking instead of shift work, fresh air instead of the sulfurous smell from the smelting plant, time for the family instead of overtime. What more could anyone want? The waste heat that previously helped supply apartment blocks and the planned teaching swimming pool will disappear, too – but that is also an important contribution to decarbonization. Sitting in cold apartments in winter is, after all, climate-neutral. Back to our roots in 1021 – with self-sufficiency, hunting parties, and the romantic charm of loggers' cabins. Only the Killjoys at Compact Spoil the Climate Celebration – It's Other People's Sacrifices That Count!Only the perennial killjoys at Compact see things differently. They produced a report and spoke to employees and AfD city councilor Maximilian Zermann. The workers talk about an ideologically driven bad decision, a lack of affordable energy (gas and electricity), a domino effect of further bankruptcies, and an economic death blow for the region. One said, in essence, that what the federal government was doing here was absolutely disgraceful. Another asked: “What are we supposed to live on when everything here is being bulldozed?” The city councilor spoke of political misjudgments over the past 10–15 years, the bashing of combustion-engine vehicles, rising costs, and sanctions. Typical. Climate protection demands sacrifices, after all – from other people. How else is Germany supposed to save the global climate while China and India keep producing?The Perfect Parting Gift for the AfD: Hundreds of Newly Unemployed People to Manage!If an AfD government takes office at the beginning of December 2026, it will immediately have a wonderful task on its hands: dealing with many hundreds of newly unemployed people. What a fantastic parting gift from the CDU, SPD, and the Green-inspired policies that set the stage! Energy-intensive industry has been systematically made unprofitable, nuclear power and cheap gas have been done away with, wind turbines have been built, and at the same time, parts for combustion-engine vehicles have been phased out – and now everyone can celebrate progress. The workforce, many of whom have worked there for 15 or 17 years, or even decades, and will miss their friends and the shower at the end of their shifts, can rejoice: They are making the decisive contribution. The final days will be “rough,” as one worker put it. But that's the price of saving the climate.Industrial Devastation as a Climate Victory – More of the Same!What looks like economic devastation and a social upheaval is, in reality, the consistent triumph of the energy transition. The region, which once had thousands of industrial jobs and had recovered after German reunification, is now allowed to grow quiet and become climate-neutral. The politicians have delivered! Bravo! One can only hope that more energy-intensive businesses follow this example. Then Saxony-Anhalt will become even greener, even emptier, and even more closely connected to nature. What more could anyone want?Saxony-Anhalt Is Failing to Meet Its Climate TargetsThe reduction of that wicked CO₂ has stalled in Saxony-Anhalt. From approximately 30.7 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalent in 2021, emissions fell to 28.8 million tonnes in 2022, and then to 26.4 million tonnes of CO₂ equivalent in 2023. But then came the big shock: In 2024, CO₂ emissions rose to 26.6 million tonnes, and in 2025 there was a mere reduction of a measly 8,000 tonnes of CO₂ equivalent. It is only logical that major efforts are needed to achieve the climate targets.Sven Schulze (CDU) Has Not Been Seen AgainThe much-loved outgoing Minister-President Sven Schulze (CDU) has not been seen in Harzgerode again. Why would he be? He has brought Saxony-Anhalt one step closer to climate neutrality and preferred to celebrate the opening of the first industrial biorefinery in Leuna. Up to 200 jobs could be created there.The unemployed in Harzgerode? They'll somehow manage, won't they? There are more important things than some backwoods folk somewhere in the Harz Mountains, right?
