Qué cansado estoy de escuchar esa tontería del conflicto intergeneracional. Los problemas de los jóvenes no se deben a las pensiones, sino a la vivienda! Y la solución no es construir, sino limitar la especulación inmobiliaria! Es tan evidente que da vergüenza explicarlo.

From clean air to pesticides: how UK has lagged behind EU on the environment Labour has continued to diverge from bloc’s laws, meaning most of UK’s protections are weaker than pre-Brexit

Since #Brexit, UK now has lower standards than EU in:

A UNEP graphic featuring a classroom built with traditional brick materials. A teacher stands at a blackboard with chalk writing, while several students sit at wooden desks. White text across the image reads: “Traditional building practices offer sustainable solutions as African cities grow.” The UNEP logo is in the bottom right corner.

Africa's rapid urbanization calls for sustainable building practices.

The Lycée Schorge in Burkina Faso exemplifies this, using materials like local laterite bricks and eucalyptus to keep classrooms cool and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
