At least nine homeless people have died across Germany due to low temperatures since October, the German body that tracks homelessness (BAGW) said on Monday.
“We know of nine people who died at night for no fault of their own,” Werena Rosenke, the association’s managing director told the newspaper Rheinische Post. “In some cases, forensic medical examinations are still ongoing, but we assume that the victims had no dwelling and froze to death due to low temperatures.”
Four of the deaths were reported in the port city of Hamburg, two in Düsseldorf and one each in Cologne, Essen and the eastern German city of Lauchhammer.

Maybe all their windmills to stop global warming are working too good.
Sounds like a headline stolen from the NYT. I wonder how they have homeless in merkle’s EU paradise?

You can walk around Frankfurt’s train station district, and there’s probably 500 to 700 homeless guys/gals, who are all on some drug issue (mostly heroin). They will work to get some cash....then go and get juiced up and lay in some city-park until the high ends.

The charity operations will offer some kind of heated facility....if you aren’t drunk or blitzed on some drug.
Wow! Clearly this was caused by Global Warming. Global Warming is getting more and more dangerous every year. Soon we may all freeze to death.
That is why the nomenclature is no longer Global Warming.
It is now Climate Change. Climate Change covers all bases and is non-falsifiable.
Temperature goes up: Climate Change.
Temperature goes down: Climate Change.
Temperature stays the same: Climate change is around the corner.
I bet these were white German nationals and not illegal alien moslems...
Grmany closed its coal fired power plants, jacking the price of electricity by 350 percent.
Only the wealthy can afford heat...
the (national) socialist paradise seems to have a few cracks in the wall ?
Are European nations that are on board with the Paris global warming accord overachievers?
I'm sure there was somewhere, say a Starbucks, a homeless shelter, mission, church, emergency shelter, hospital where they could have gone.
They died and it wasn’t their fault?? Who killed them Global Warming??
