This is why it is vitally important to fund basic scientific research.

Remember guys, you can’t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof.

That’s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy.

People live here.

A quiet corridor, warm lights, and a bicycle waiting at the far end. Small details that remind you this isn’t just architecture — it’s someone’s everyday life.

Despite massive bombardment and the assassination of Iran’s leader, the US has failed to overthrow the Iranian government. Instead, the conflict is expanding and becoming more dangerous. The war is devastating civilians and the stock market.

Zugehörigkeit im Ausland: Wo ist mein Zuhause? Obwohl ich eine stolze Schweizer Bürgerin bin, fühle ich mich nicht wirklich als Schweizerin. So wie mir geht es vielen Expats.

Wo ist mein Zuhause? Diese Frage ist noch schwerer zu beantworten, wenn du eine Weile im Ausland lebst oder gar dauerhaft. „You can’t really ever go home again“, heißt es dann. Stimmt das?
