Gratitude prayer for Germany

5 Dicembre 2022

We thank God for all the governments and civil society that are taking decisions to hear the cry of the Earth and the Poor. Germany will force plastic manufacturers in the country to pay litter cleanups. This idea was agreed by the Cabinet early in November, and will require makers of products containing single-use plastic to pay into a central fund that the government will manage. The measure will come into force in 2025. This will contribute to the cost of cleaning up litter in streets and parks.
