Germany's Constitutional Court ruling that the government鈥檚 climate policies are insufficient will have a major impact on the country's election campaign and beyond, media commentators say. 鈥淭he political impact of the ruling is likely to be enormous,鈥� Jakob Schlandt in Der Tagesspiegel. 鈥淭he judges leave no doubt at all that there is a robust, actionable scientific consensus on man-made climate change,鈥� which results in an obligation for politicians to act, Schlandt writes. In the S眉ddeutsche Zeitung, Wolfgang Janisch that politicians can no longer postpone decisions regarding climate protection. 鈥淭he defense of fundamental rights against climate protection failures [..] must begin today,鈥� Janisch writes.

In in Focus Online, Ulrich Reitz says the ruling paves the way for Green Party politician Annalena Baerbock to possibly become the next German chancellor. 鈥淭he Greens can now make climate policy the benchmark for all legislative interventions,鈥� Reitz writes, and warns of 鈥渃limate absolutism鈥� that will restrict people鈥檚 fundamental rights in a similar way to the coronavirus policies. In Die Welt, Daniel Wetzel that the judicial belief that the next generation will be more heavily burdened by climate change is 鈥渉ighly questionable鈥� and not scientifically supported. Clean energy technologies are making rapid progress and their costs are falling, he says, meaning 鈥渃limate protection will likely be cheaper and easier for the next generation.鈥�

The ruling was also widely covered in international media. headlined that the court "hands youth a victory in climate change fight," and correspondent Melissa Eddy characterized the decision as a reprimand of Chancellor Angela Merkel鈥檚 government. Reporting for , Karin Matussek and Stefan Nicola called the court's decision a "stinging setback" for Merkel's conservatives, saying that it "set off a blame game" in the bloc. Frank Jordans said in an report the ruling was groundbreaking because of the court's verdict that the burden of fighting the climate crisis must be shared between younger and older generations.

St茅phane Roland underlined in the French how unexpected the ruling was, and that all leading politicians welcomed the court's decision. Mentioning implications beyond Germany in Spanish , Carlos Fresneda said the ruling can "open the gates to a possible chain of lawsuits for more ambitious climate change goals in other European courts."
