Low water levels on Germany’s sections of the Rhine have been challenging inland cargo vessels since the height of the summer, but now a vessel loaded...
Fossil fuel emessions cause climate change. ICE cars cause a lot of fossil fuel emissions. Climate change causes drought. Drought causes low water of the Rhine. The low water now prevents the transport of more of these cars.
Something that more wise politics and industry decisions would have prevented.
I think the person you’re replying to actuallt just isn’t familiar with the acronym for “internal combuston engine”, since their mentions of America suggests that they think it’s about the American Immigration & Customs Enforcement
The only (widespread) meanings of “ICE” I knew about up to now:
Inter City Express, a common train type here in Germany, where the barge grounded
The US immigration guys
In Circuit Emulator, a tool widely use in my profession
.
Very first thought on seeing the heading was the train cars, which after looking at the article didn’t make sense, so it had to be the second one, which would have made sense.
The article did mention neither, I now suspect a little bit that it was added by OP for dramatic effect (climate connection), without having an actual source.
Didn’t know before that “ICE” can also be a abbreviation for “Internal Combustion Engine”, so that just has been some word confusion.
But now looking at the article again (which doesn’t mention the motor type at all) I can’t help but wonder (and please be honest):
Did you add the “ICE” in the post’s heading for dramatic effect by yourself?
Easy.

Correct.
That was new to me.
