Blaming migrants, refugees & educated elite are all classic distraction lies, which unfortunately work!
It is a common anti democratic method to undermine us!
When the real problems are people who live above democracy, e.g. Billionaires, fascists with power.

There’s a small chance of very high warming even with moderate future emissions, reports @newscientist.com, referring to a new PIK study. It’s the first to make long-term projections over 1,000 years while accounting for established carbon cycle feedbacks.

Cities with streets with no cars, only people & bikes and mobility devices. Rails running underground. Electricity generated locally & everywhere. Corners all have small grocery shops, health clinics, community centers, libraries. Every person guaranteed a home. Luxury goods taxed out of existence…

Activists greeted travellers at the entrances in protest of private jets, airport expansion and air pollution. Children near CPH airport have higher rates of asthma and other respiratory illnesses. This isn't just a climate issue; it's a public health crisis.

Clara, a researcher, held up a banner against private jets at Bromma Airport.
For this, she was arrested, searched for drugs in police custody and eventually denied Swedish citizenship.
