There is a huge difference between not being allowed to do something, and deciding not to do something.
I don’t have a car (like most people in my town). So not allowing car ownership would be ok?

Maybe 2.1 billion was cheap enough to kill a competitor?
I use cotton dish cloths, and a brush
Germany and Italy are filled with monuments regarding their dark past (have never been to France and Spain and only very briefly to Belgium so I can’t judge). I really don’t know what you are talking about.
Peppermint tea. If you have a garden you can grow it yourself. But you have to keep it from spreading everywhere.
There are other destinations in Europe. Who needs the UK? I used to go there occasionally, in the past, but if they don’t want visitors anymore… so be it.
Our first colour tv cost about 3 months of my dad’s salary in the early 1970s. And the Siemens mainframe computer in the company he worked for was tens of thousands (which was more than a year’s worth of the average salary). Rent. Every month. It had less computing power than my smartphone.
A brand new coffee grinder (hand crank) for free, and 15 silk neckties for €1 each.
Free people as in free from exploitation, free from polluted environments, free from unsafe work conditions? Then I’m with you.
It’s about 40 years since I left university, and I’m afraid I do have a slight idea. And I don’t like it. At all.
True. Commercial interests should not have any place, in any university, in any shape and form.
A student was distressed? Oh, poor little creature. Has to be handled with care, wrapped in cotton wool?
Grow up, student!
Sometime soon they’ll hide the “break” function in some sub-menu of the “speed” tree, to replace the break pedal.
Of course there’s a reason. It’s called fraud. If they sell not so “green” products, then greenwashing is fraud, plain and simple.
They are still allowed to sell those not so green products for cheap, but they are no longer allowed to outright lie about the colour.
Looking at monthly data from January 2022 to December 2022 (Figure 11), with the exception of March and April, consumption has been consistently below the 2017-2022 average of the respective months of those years. Between January and July 2022, natural gas consumption in the EU varied between 1 938 Petajoules (PJ) in January and 785 PJ in July, indicating a monthly decrease overall, even before the target of 15% gas reduction was set up
While the gas reserves are higher than ever (https://www.consilium.europa.eu/de/infographics/gas-storage-capacity/)
Absolutely no reason to worry about supply, cold homes, or lights going out.
Do you really trust them? I don’t.
If they are not interested, why should we be? Sever all ties… works fairly well with Russia, so why not the USA? Let them have their splendid isolation.
What counts as an SUV? Suzuki LJ80? Lada Niva? Parking those costs more than parking a Rolls Royce Phantom or Lincoln Continental?
Good. We need a steady reduction of the economic volume.
