We know a lot about what would be needed to make mobility more sustainable. However, implementation in Germany has often failed because of legal hurdles.

Thanks to a change in transport law, local authorities now have considerably more opportunities to give health, climate, and the environment more weight in transport planning!

People in the know know what's coming.

🔴 Climate scientists know.

🔴 Top Wall Street financiers know.

🔴 Our "leaders" in business and government know.

Global warming *will* exceed 1.5°C above the pre-industrial average. Effectively it already has.

Any hope of staying below 2°C also appears to be lost. We are now heading toward a 3° world, if not higher.

Of course we should continue working hard to limit the catastrophic damage as much as possible. But you’re a fool if you’re not beginning at this point to prepare for the worst — because that's what's coming.
