Germany did vote to take all German Nukes offline after Fukushima. They took half offline pre-2014 and the rest slated for 2022.
Sharp increase in renewables have offset alot of the increase coal/oil/gas consumption. I think the 'data' is correct, and they have not yet taken any of the remaining nukes off line.
Nice attempt to throw a wrench. German per capita has increased by a little, which is mostly attributed to transportation.
Biggest gross contributors have been China, USA and India. On a per capita however, China and India still small.
