I don't get the media spin in the UK. I don't expect Germany to be anything other than capitalist, or as they say "ordoliberal", which is a market with strong state regulation. Considering their socialist policies starte

In Germany, there is SCHUFA, which is a credit score. To rent in Germany, I had to have a SCHUFA check and a letter from my previous landlord saying I didn't have any outstanding debts, the "Mietschuldenfreiheitsbescheinigung.&quo

Extending grid interconnections is helping mitigate this issue. It may not be windy in some places, but chances are it will be windy in others. Fossil fuel backups such as gas are not a bad interim solution, considering gas is less pollutin

It depends where you are. I've travelled in Europe and had good service just googling the number of a local taxi firm, and speaking to them. I used Uber once, and they decided not to take my fare; they never showed up.
