Yes, go back to putting candles on the tree branches.
So, Christmas lights are harming the Earth?
Less Christmas, more mosques?
Ah yes, that will reduce CO2 emissions.
By approximately 0.00001%.
And we thought Germans were techies.
I bought a projector last week that is swirling snowflakes around my ceiling and upper walls while I am posting this. Amazing what great light displays they sell these days.
Ditching them cuz of climate change or the fact that Christmas lights, markts, festivities, gifts and anything else offends the Muslim refugees they let into the country?
Another unspoken reason might be that it makes them a target for Muslims.
Whatta bout the Ramadan Lights?
OMG. These stupid polls!!
Ignorant, stupid Germans.
The muzzies will herald that as a win, that they are further silencing the Christian infidels there.
They have killed ethnic German festivals and pork on menus. Now, Christmas darkens.
Ignorant, stupid Germans.
Their problem is not “climate change”, it is their “green” energy agenda making electricity so expensive. That is why they could think of cutting back on Christmas lights, to cut their high electric bills.
But rainbow lights in June are thpecial.
Of the respondents, 11% said they would make do without any lights this year due to climate concerns, while 10% said they would do so in the future. But 35% said turning off the lights was not an option for them.

New math. To arrive at the touted “majority” in the headline they have to add
11% - who claimed they would make due w/o light
10% - who claimed they would do so in the future (promises promises)
35% - who said they *can’t* turn off the lights. Which is the oddest of all to include.
But, I guess a truthful headline of 10% of Germans ditch Christmas lights just doest sound too sexy.
They are called LED’s and use a fraction of the power that Merkals vibrator.
You can pry them from my cold, dead hands.
Happiness is forbidden in the Brave New World.
North Korean darkness is the new cool thing.
A Canticle for Leibowitz? Perhaps someday the lights will return.
Shoot, theyre probably looking at their pocketbooks more than anything. Electricity is expensive in Europe.
