German Atomic Forum wins Worst EU Greenwash Award

On 4th Dezember the  Worst EU Lobby and the Worst European Greenwash were
being awarded in the Botanique in Brussels.

The award for the Worst EU Lobby went to Porsche, Daimler and BMW for
trying to keep car emission targets at bay. The German Atomic Forum, the lobby-organisation of the german nuclear power industry, won
the award for its "Unloved Climate Protectionist"-advertisement campaign.

Stand-up comedian Christina Martin, one of the presenters of the event,
noted that the German Atomic Forum is only 50% right, portraying itself
as "unloved" indeed.
