Wissenschaft ist kein Wunschkonzert der Reichen und Mächtigen, die missliebige Forschung - etwa die Klimaforschung - am liebsten abschaffen und unterdrücken wollen. Deshalb habe ich das Hamburger Manifest unterschrieben. Es ist auch ein Appell an Forscherkollegen.

Wenn Friedrich Merz sich auch nur ansatzweise interessieren würde dafür, was gut für meine Töchter ist, nähme er die Klimakrise ernst, würde den Verbrennungsmotor in Rente schicken, Überreiche fair besteuern und nie mehr AfD-Parolen nachbellen.

Im französischen Fernsehen haben sie den CSU-Chef Markus Söder analysiert - als "Gastro-Populisten". Und manchmal hilft der Blick von außen, um eine PR-Strategie besser zu verstehen. Sehenswert!
