I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Again, follow Martin, you can cite him as Martin Röck (RISE), how cool is that? This is the place for all the good data around construction that your country is still likely to hide from you bc it would change construction over night, just like renewable energy and heatpumps do with heating.
