The diagram shows, in black, the national annual distance cycled. On top of this I have drawn the growth rates seen in the City of London and Wilmslow Road in Manchester. A few schemes see a phenominal growth (the heavy lifting) but there aren't enough of them (yet) to affect the national picture.

Ja, de har virkelig regnet den ud, de ultrarige med deres plan B: Gemme sig i luksuriøse bunkere med paramilitære vagtværn. Overleve et totalt sammenbrud, de selv var med til at skabe.

Ufatteligt hvis de for alvor tror på at ha' kontrol over situationen, lidt ligesom i slutscenen i "Don't Look Up".

For Polish philosopher Barbara Skarga, human history is a tale of hatred and scapegoating. The consequences of this have always been- and will always be disastrous:

"Hate is like mud, a slime that can cover all social action, sticky and destructive - ready to ruin even the best of best".

8) "The news itself was not new; the risk has been discussed before. However, I cannot find any interviews in which Finland's top decision-makers say anything about the subject. AMOC is slowing down and stopping in a reality where there is no Finnish government, ministers or parliament".

7) An example is the discussion about #AMOC: "In October, Helsingin Sanomat interviewed Stefan Rahmstorf, one of the world's leading ocean current researchers. The outlook is dire: if the ocean currents no longer transport heat to Northern Europe, even food production in Finland will be threatened".

6) "When environmental threats are not linked to current politics, they become abstract fear-mongering. This makes some people dismiss climate news with snotty smileys.

Why take something as fact that isn't present in the same reality as the problems of welfare states, unemployment or state debt?"

5) "War, an existential threat to Finland, would remain a bubble of experts, and our leading politicians would spend their working hours on the budget and national debt talk. At the EU level, they would try to overthrow the common defense and preparedness plans and justify it with competitiveness."

4) ..."but in a newspaper article in which a leading military scientist would say that the probability of a Russian attack on Finland has increased, the prime minister, president, or minister of defense would not be asked about the matter".

3)..."and all this would be analyzed among military scientists in press interviews and studios. Politicians would not comment and would generally not even be asked. Intelligence data would report an increased threat citizens would become anxious and young people would lose faith in the future"...

2) "Let's move the setting to another topic. It would be strange and scary if the war in Ukraine and the Russian threat were only discussed in public by scientists. The war would continue and continue, Russia would also disturb its other neighboring countries..."
