German consumer prices rose 3.3 percent in September

Original: „ Die Verbraucherpreise stiegen im September um 3,3 Prozent im Vergleich zum Vorjahresmonat. Gründe für den Preisanstieg

German consumer prices rose 3.3 percent in September compared with the same month a year earlier. Commenters attribute the increase largely to crop losses caused by extreme heat and drought over the summer, arguing that many people do not yet connect rising food costs with climate change. The figures have sparked debate about how far the climate crisis is now feeding into inflation.

Why now: New inflation figures directly linking price rises to climate-related crop losses are prompting debate about the economic cost of climate change.
