一 | Berlin, Oct 13 (UNI) As Germany battles the energy crisis, the government, in line with the leading economic institutes, expects an economic contraction of 0.4 per cent in 2023 and says that the country could slide into recession next year.
"This severe energy crisis threatens to become an economic and, in conjunction with it, a social crisis," Minister for Economic Affairs Robert Habeck said at a press conference here on Wednesday.
In its spring forecast, the German government had still projected growth of 2.5 per cent for next year.
The measures taken by the government to address the energy crisis have worked "no matter how serious and depressing these figures are," Habeck stressed.
A "significantly sharper" economic decline has been forecast, he added, for a worst-case scenario that includes a freeze of Russian gas supplies.
At the beginning of September, gas supplies through the important Nord Stream 1 pipeline to Germany were completely halted after being suspended several times previously for maintenance work.
To ensure heating supply this winter, the authorities have accelerated the filling of the country's gas storages. According to the government's legal targets, gas storage facilities should be at least 95 percent full by Nov. 1. This target, Habeck said, has now almost been reached.
Driven by soaring energy prices, inflation in Germany has risen steadily since the start of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, reaching record levels of 10 per cent in September, according to preliminary figures issued by the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis).
To cushion the impact of high inflation, the government has already presented relief measures, which include short-term financial support to residents faced with steep heating bills and increased welfare payments. It also announced a "protective umbrella" of up to 200 billion euros (194 billion US dollars) to stabilize the economy.
As a result of the measures, inflation would drop to 7 per cent next year instead of rising further as predicted by the economic institutes earlier, Habeck said. "These packages will have an impact, also to curb inflation."
However, companies have warned that "weak investment" is reducing the country's growth potential. This increases the risk that the German economy would "lose ground in global competition," the Federation of German Industries said on Wednesday.
"Of course, we need the full financial power of the state to maintain the substance of our economy and jobs," Habeck said, promising to "quickly implement" the gas and electricity price brakes.

二 | 全国生态日法典进乡村杭州日报讯 绿水青山间,古枣垂枝时。8月15日是全国生态日,也是《中华人民共和国生态环境法典》(以下简称《生态环境法典》)正式施行的第一天。8月14日,一场名为“法典护古树 法治润枣乡”《生态环境法典》实施宣传活动,在淳安县左口乡显后村百年古枣林及村新时代文明实践站举行。左口乡拥有5000余亩连片古枣林,其中树龄超300年的古枣树达600余株,显后村更是有着800余年护绿文脉。自南宋嘉定年间建村,当地方氏先祖便秉持“山林固水土、山水养村庄”的朴素生态观,划定村南朝山为宗族禁山,立下“只许养护、严禁砍伐”的祖训规约。

三 | 世代村民严守古训,禁止随意伐树、进山狩猎,依靠村规涵养水土、抵御山洪,为整片古枣林留存筑牢深厚群众根基。如今,这份传承千年的生态智慧,正通过制度化、法治化方式延续传承。活动现场,工作人员为树龄412年的“江南枣树王”悬挂专属保护铭牌。一块小小的古树身份牌,清晰界定古树管护权责,成为具象化的法治保护凭证。同步揭牌成立古枣林公益诉讼联络点,依托林间实景开设特色“微课堂”,检察、司法工作人员现场解读古树名木保护相关禁止性条款、日常管护标准及破坏林木对应的法律后果,公开生态违法线索举报渠道,让生态法律知识走出文件、走进田间林间。淳安县人民检察院副检察长余爱华介绍,《生态环境法典》首次在立法层面确立生态环境检察相关制度,赋予检察机关更厚重的生态保护司法职责。古树名木属于不可再生的生态文化资源,损毁古树本质上侵害社会公共生态利益,检察公益诉讼正是古树保护的司法盾牌,能够实现“办理一案、警示一片、治理一域”的治理成效。本次活动同步发布两项长效管护举措:一是在显后村新时代文明实践站首发《生态环境法典(古树名木保护)》普法动漫短视频,把晦涩的法律条文转化为通俗动画,方便村民理解传播;二是林业部门正式发布左口乡古树名木保护名录,建立“一树一档”精细化管护台账,压实行业、属地、网格员三方管护责任,实现古树名木常态化规范化管护。检察机关结合本地古树损毁、林地破坏真实案例以案释法,细致讲解公益诉讼、生态修复、行政处罚等法律要点,清晰告知群众破坏古林的法律代价。左口乡乡长陈显锋表示,多部门联合林间普法,是淳安探索古树常态化保护、打造乡村生态法治样板的实践尝试。当地将持续压实属地管护责任,依托网格员包保体系,把古枣林生态保护融入乡村发展全过程,让百年古树在法治护航下永续生长。
