Today in the NYT there’s a story about how imagining activities & scenes to look forward to can help us with difficult times during the pandemic.
I’m looking forward to big dinners w/ friends & live shows. How about you? https://twitter.com/aoc/status/1165340309384908800
What's your "favourite" aviation greenwashing strategy?
Once again, the state is stepping in to help an airline that has laid off staff in the crisis. Easyjet gets a 1.87 billion $ loan, backed by the UK.
What we need now is a just permanent reduction of air traffic, not keeping airlines alive at any price!

Survey of 27,700 Europeans: promising results!
🛬 74% said they planned to fly less for ecological reasons
🚆 71% prefer trains over planes for short trips
Governments must now foster alternatives and stop subsidising airlines with taxpayers' money!
