Flying less is going to be a trend: Germany raises the price of air travel and lowers the price of trains

adminOctober 31, 20190

Definitely, flying less is going to be a trend. At least among those who intend to contribute to the best health on the planet. You just have to take into account, every time we think about traveling , that the aviation industry causes between 3% and 8% of global pollution . An airline aircraft not only emits carbon dioxide (CO2) , but also water vapor and nitrous oxide, other greenhouse gases . By doing so at high altitude, the damage is even greater. Therefore, more and more citizens are aware of this reality and pressure their governments. So it should be understood that the Government of Germany finished approving bills that will mean a rise in air travel and cheaper train ticket . They are part of the crash plan to meet the objectives of reducing CO2 emissions by 2030. The b...

Real Madrid like each other and achieve a strong goal against Leganés

adminOctober 31, 20190

After a forced rest day, Real Madrid returned to the League with its most comfortable victory so far this season . Leganés, a team with an interim coach but who had just won the weekend, was the perfect victim for a white team that only took eight minutes to sentence the crash. Zidane opted for Rodrygo and it only took the Brazilian seven minutes to correspond to his confidence at the end of a great collective play by several Madrid attackers, with Hazard and Benzema leading the way. But the white momentum did not stop there and in another great action in which many white players intervened the one who entered the auction was Kroos. In a seen and not seen the meeting gave the sensation of being sentenced, something not usual for Real Madrid since ... he left Cris...

adminOctober 31, 20190

His " flamenco-coplera fusion with black music and rhythms of avant-garde electronics" has become his hallmark and that is why they have an absolutely recognizable identity. After finishing the recording of their new album, Nita (Cristina Manjón) and Ale Acosta present Despertaré , a song that, in his words, " transmits the most powerful force a human being has , the most delicate fragility, that duality that it balances everything and the capacity to love that unites us and that allows us to wake up inside.

“From a budgetary point of view, too much incentive” green “taxation can end up posing a problem”

adminOctober 16, 20190

The ecological taxation is first supposed to change behavior. But she must also bring back recipes, recalls the journalist of the "World" Audrey Cooper in her column. The debate is old, but it resurfaced in favor of the crisis of "yellow vests". In the autumn of 2018, when soaring prices at the pump, coupled with the rise in environmental taxes, triggered the first social crisis in Emmanuel Macron's mandate, the role to be attributed to the "green" tax system suddenly shifted from rank of expert debate to that of daily stake for the French. How can taxes encourage ecological transition while remaining socially acceptable? And how to avoid that the most modest are the first contributors? In theory, ecological taxation is primarily supposed to change behavior, not to b...

adminOctober 16, 20190

IN ONE GRAPH - Esther Duflo received the Swedish Bank of Economics Award alongside two other researchers. Since the creation of the Nobel, less than 6% of women have been awarded. Thirteen men and one woman: the Nobel podium did not shine by its diversity in 2019. It was not until the presentation of the price of the Bank of Sweden in economics, Monday, October 14, for a woman, the Franco -American Esther Duflo, winner, along with two men, Michael Kremer and Abhijit Banerjee. The Polish Olga Tokarczuk was well distinguished, but it was in 2018 , the year that saw the postponement of the award because of a scandal involving accusations of rape and conflicts of interest involving members of the Academy. Since the creation of the prize in 1901, only 54 women have been laureates, wh...
