Chapeau, @carmenwegge.bsky.social. Bei solchen absurden, platten, faktenverdrehenden Fragen zu #Aschaffenburg im #DLF trotzdem sinnvolle und durchdachte Antworten zu geben, ist eine groΓe Leistung.
DLF das war keine Zuspitzung von Christoph Heinemann. Das war nah an Hetze.

Billionaire wealth surged by $2T in 2024, says Oxfam. But letβs be real: secrecy jurisdictions and non-public UBO registers mean this is likely an underestimate. The true figure could be even higher. Transparency matters. #WealthInequality #TaxJustice

PRESS RELEASE: Billionaire wealth surges by $2 trillion in 2024, 3 times faster than the year before, while the number of people living in poverty has barely changed since 1990.
At this pace, we wonβt see 1 trillionaire in a decade, but 5.

The first time we got an Interrail pass (free for kids). We did Brussels-Paris by Thalys, then Paris-Latour de Carol by night train, and from there we took a commuter train to Barcelona. The year after we booked our tickets very early on and went by Thalys and TGV.

The life-or-death fight over car pollution rules
Efforts to delay new EU car emission standards risks worsening the blocβs pollution problem.
Really important (and scaring) read on @POLITICOEurope today: 238,000 premature deaths *every year* in the EU are attributable to air pollution.
And still, MEPs + several EU countries (looking at you, π©πͺ) are lobbying hard to delay stricter rules.

Donβt lock me in my neighborhood! 15-minute city hysteria sweeps the UK
The academic behind the hit urban planning concept slammed βflat-earthersβ spreading fake news about livable cities.
"Today 80 percent of urban mobility is forced, because people have to get up early and commute... In a city of proximity in which services are always close by, mobility is a choice: ... you go where you want because you want to, not because you have to.

How NOT to write an op-ed
EUobserver receives tens of thousands of words of unsolicited opinion pieces every day β for one daily slot. So, how do you differentiate your piece from the crowd of others, and actually get published?
Good + useful read by @MattTempest on writing and placing op-ed. I am proud to say I managed to place more than one op-ed with him. Just wondering why he didn't take all the others I offered that were sooooooooooooooooooo important. π

So far all worked really well - and the trip itself is much easier than booking it was! Unbelievable how complicated it is to find the right train connections, prices etc.
