Germany is worse than average for Europe, but it's far better than America and about on par with China. Per capita emissions are a little lower than China's, but China is a bit better if you look at consumption-based emissions instead
Comment on China's green energy boom could spell the end of the fossil fuel age

Oh, but Germans can just buy their electricity from French nuclear plants.

don’t worry, you can start shutting down france’s nuclear generators once you run out of your own

They are already shutting it down on their own due to recent heatwaves raising the temps of the water used to cool down their reactors

Just use solar panels to power the ac to cool the water that makes the nuclear. Bonus points for floating solar arrays that cool the panels while shading the cooling water.

Which is an ecological measure, not a technical one, and can be circumvented by existing technologies like cooling towers
