BREAKING: Germany has just announced UNLIMITED public transport anywhere in the country will cost just £1.40 PER DAY.

Officials say the policy is aimed at cutting CO2 emissions and helping with the cost of living.

Anyone else think our government should do something similar?

Idea that going green will be expensive is ‘just wrong’ https://t.co/p9wFcrxr67

Let’s stop sleepwalking towards the destruction of our planet by climate change.

Today, it is Pakistan. Tomorrow, it could be your country.

De goede oude tijd (2019) waar @JanJambon - de architect van ons ANPR-netwerk - nog vol trots verkondigde dat de camera’s énkel zware criminelen en terroristen zouden viseren.

2022: verkeersboetes, accijnzen, alimentatie, btw, personenbelasting (…). Ja hoor.

Death Valley, the hottest and driest place in the US just saw the 4th 1-in-1,000 year rain event in less than 2 weeks in the US.

3/4 of Death Valley’s annual rainfall fell in 3 hours.

BREAKING: We won our case! The High Court has found the the UK Gov acted illegally and must now revise the the Net Zero Strategy to include more detail of exactly how they will meet the targets. Climate litigation works.https://t.co/yO1HLWxief

Putin's next (and final) battle.
(This thread went viral in Russian so I decided to publish an English version as well)

A long thread about what, in my opinion, is Putin's strategy right now, and the last gamble he is making to break Ukraine's resistance.

@0xnbx @1BlockerApp Makes sense in a way. But it doesn’t feel right to get ads when already paying for an expensive newspaper subscription. I use the app mostly to block cookies.

"Investments in #PlantBasedAlternatives to meat lead to far greater cuts in climate-heating emissions than other green investments, according to one of the world’s biggest consultancy firms." Glad more are realising that we need #DietChangeNotClimateChange https://t.co/bSlq8WfckH

Following @LiamBlank, the same goes for Europe. "Every flight between cities within this circle is a policy failure". This circle includes Berlin, Vienna, Warsaw, Prague, Budapest, Ljubljana, Milano, Venice & Munich.

In contrast to other motorised modes of #transport, #rail is inherently low emission. Rail makes up just 2% of total transport emissions. In France, very high-speed rail can bring up to 60 times fewer #carbonemissions per passenger kilometre than a flight. https://t.co/KLZIevhuca

This really is quite something. Wait for the total admonishment of Hungary’s Viktor Orban.

🗣 “We are seeing claims that volatility in gas & electricity markets is the result of the clean energy transition. These assertions are misleading to say the least.”
