Von Wegen „früher war es auch heiß“ 🤡
Politischer Verbrennerextremismus bringt uns Rekordextreme. Noch nie war es so heiß und auf lange Zeit wird es immer heißer, die Probleme immer extremer. Nicht zufällig, sondern gemacht von der Bundesregierung und ihren Petrobuddies in der Welt.
Der heißeste Sommer unseres Lebens könnte der kühlste für den Rest unseres Lebens sein, wenn die Bundesregierung unsere Verbrennung weiter befeuert.

No starker measure of inequality than this, actual Healthy Life Expectancy: 'In England, Richmond in London had the highest rates of HLE at 69 for men and 70 for women. In comparison, in Blackpool it was 51 for men and in Hartlepool is was 51 for women. London was the only region that saw an improvement in HLE over the period.' Supposedly even worse in parts of Scotland. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c20q07w3gl9o
