In Europe, the impact of the climate crisis is intensifying every year. In the Czech Republic, 75 % of the population believes that climate change is caused by human activity, and 55 % are ready to adjust their lifestyles as a result. The Czech student population blames previous generations, draws attention to the problems with strikes and demands systemic changes from the state. Parents are aware of the threat. However, they do not want any intervention in their personal welfare, and they expect action at a governmental level. In the meantime, the government is proposing a new policy that aims to defend human freedom from dangerous activism. What does the Prague Climate Plan have to say about all this? Is it possible to reconcile the worlds of disagreeing opinions and find common ground?
