    There was a hailstorm that covered the city in snow two days ago in the middle of Germany… in Summer.

    It really feels weird that there is nothing you as a person can do

      And it even was the very same city that exactly 10 years ago was hit with a very violent hailstorm that caused billions in damage.

      You can always vote better. There are choices you can make as a consumer, but mostly it is fiddling at the edges. We need massive action and that means government.

        I think a lot of us have been voting as best we can.
