This is an awesome thread on supporting people to travel by rail rather than car if you're interested

writing.exchange/@Firlefanz/11











Writing ExchangeHannah Steenbock (@Firlefanz@writing.exchange)@bethsawin@spore.social I see a lot of change in Germany. After experimenting with cheap public transport last year (a monthly ticket for ALL local transport in Germany was only €9 for 3 months, yes, subsidized) we now have the DE-ticket, which covers ALL local traffic for €49 in subscriptions. Many people are using it to shift from cars to buses or trains. My town has started using E-buses and has shifted the local small ferries to E-Boats (and the fare is included in the DE-Ticket). #ClimateHope

UK’s head of policy and research for climate and humanitarian, said: “With a year to go before a general election, it’s concerning to see both the government and the opposition wavering on their climate commitments. To do so lays bare the government’s failure to act as a global leader and is jeopardising global progress on climate."
