Wit power. Climate protection instead of fake news

Newspapers in the Springer press headline: "Germany facing the Solar Debacle". That is fake news. They are disseminated worldwide by politicians, the press and on social media.

The energy transition is going much better than the right-wing scaremongers from BILD, WELT and others would have us believe. Wind turbines and solar power complement each other well. We have enough power plants to generate enough electricity even during "dark doldrums". Generating, distributing and using renewable energy from the sun and wind instead of fossil fuels is the energy transition.

How do you expose fake news? How do you set positive signals instead?

We are planning an exhibition on the subject and are inviting artists from all over the world to submit their proposals. We would like to see works that address this issue and conserve resources in terms of transportation and materials.

We will jury them as a team and show them in our rooms.
