In Innsbruck, the ‘Last Generation’ attracted attention again on Monday with an action. Climate activists targeted the university and, among other things, smeared a staircase with orange paint. The criticism is again mainly aimed at politics.
“The Last Generation interrupted daily study life and covered the stairs of the main building of the University of Innsbruck with orange paint to point out that the continued use of fossil fuels as before threatens our survival and that people need to wake up,” according to a broadcast of the last generation.
“Science is ignored”
As part of the “Student Revolution,” the activists would work to “ensure that the knowledge taught every day in universities is taken seriously.” Under the motto ‘Science is ignored’, attention is drawn to ‘the fact that responsibility, which comes with knowledge, must also be assumed. Both in society, but especially in politics.”
This is not the first time that the University of Innsbruck has been targeted by climate activists. Last fall, the last generation of graffiti appeared on the grounds of the university library.
