To do something about the high price of gas, Germany has introduced a €9 ticket that lets you travel all around the country.

Worth checking out @david_igloo 12/12 thread on @iglooRegen @2030Home that uses their #footprint - need more of this @mcguinness_d @muldoon_smith @NCLFutureHomes @HomesMarieK @SustHomes @NCLFutureHomes
Our @2030Home is called +Home. It uses igloo's footprint® process to create more than a “house type”, bypassing housebuilders and enabling communities to co-produce green, walkable, vibrant neighbourhoods, where #climate, #nature and #community are prioritised over profit 1/12
