Capitalism? I believe we can do better than a world based on greed. Care for people is more important than care for property.

  • Increasing the deployment of renewables across the .

Should have been the first point, and should have been the focus of attention for the past decade. But since there's never going to be a better moment again than now: Stop subsidising fossil fuels now!

All onboard a night train! 🚆

Rail is one of the most sustainable means of transport we have, but cross-border trips account for just 7% of the kilometres travelled by train.

They will help us improve the quality of service and make them a viable option for more people.

Great, we need more more of this, but any progress is good news.
While on this topic, can you please start a discussion with the Dutch railways to make sure they don't suspend the Eurostar Amsterdam - London for multiple months because of engineering works at Amsterdam CS?
