In Großbritannien 🇬🇧 sieht man die Folge davon, wenn man sich beim Thema #Migration von #Rechtsaußen-Playern treiben lässt: Die Anzahl der gut ausgebildeten Fachkräfte sinkt krass ab, zudem kommen kaum mehr dringend benötigte Leute für den Bereich Gesundheit & Pflege.

Ach ja: Brexit heißt #Brexit.
This is the price of allowing far-right ideas to set the terms of debate. One of the great “achievements” of recent Conservative and Labour governments has been slamming the door on (skilled) migration.

[Just to painfully spell it out for those not paying attention...What they're "sometimes disagreeing" on that Jew-controlled drones have no tolerance for is e.g. whether the Holocaust happened]

Singing "Dies Irae" from Verdi's requiem, with Scientifiques en Rebellion @scientifiquesenrebellion.fr and the fantastic Orchestre de Nouveau Monde orchestredunouveaumonde.fr was a perfect way to take notion of government and private sector inaction during the 10 years since the Paris Agreement.

A typical European car is parked 92% of the time. It spends 1/5th of its driving time looking for parking. Its 5 seats only move 1.5 people. 86% of its fuel never reaches the wheels, and most of the energy that does, moves the car, not the people.

Sound efficient?

If we do not seriously move away from burning fossil fuels, hurricanes like Melissa will only become worse. Already today Melissa tested the limits of what preparedness and adaptation can do. These limits are very real for everyone in the Caribbean. www.worldweatherattribution.org/climate-chan...

Out now: our new study shows that climate change caused nearly 1,700 heat-related deaths in Zürich over 50 years.

We assessed the effects of changing vulnerability to heat, heat-mortality within and outside of heatwaves, and the contribution of individual companies' emissions to heat deaths.
