I have found the coolest thing while navigating the Eurostat website. They've apparently updated their data visualisation so that you can now create a little avatar, select which gender, age, and country you want to see stats for (incl. all young people, at the EU level, etc.) and then it gives you little illustrations with the different stats and compares the categories selected with other countries and the EU generally.

Republicans hate the idea that they may have to live within the earth's natural limits. Their cult rejects science because of bronze age myths.

But de-funding science and continuing to use five year's worth of resources every year hoping a sky fairy will fix it later is stupid, and irresponsible. And a lie.

No magic solution exists to our own greed and selfishness.

humanity is a #natural #system. i #hope we can all agree on that one. we know about these systems that they all behave a certain type of way, that they grow & require #energy & #resources to maintain.

we can also agree that earth is a sphere in effing space and sort of materailly limited.

it is a obvious as can possibly be to a 3 year old, but the libs, they just can't have it. endless growth on a finite planet! everyone's gonna be a millionaire!

"Value-per-acre analysis is powerful because it reveals what raw numbers often miss: how efficiently #land contributes to a community’s #financial #health. It doesn’t tell #cities what to build or where to build it. But it helps communities see which investments generate lasting #value, and which ones may quietly drain #resources over time."
