And they are being built and encouraged in Europe. I'd recommend anyone travelling within Europe first check for train routes before booking a flight.

That said, while they are improving the situation, building new rail lines, tunnels, bridges, etc., and changing the regulatory environment to allow more competition, these are slow improvements to make.

I checked and Zurich-Bilbao has few high-speed sections. They're building new high speed lines near Bilbao, but infrastructure takes time...

While I'd like to believe this, if Putin comes to some peaceful agreement with Ukraine, the international community will just wait until people are distracted by the next big news story and then let Putin back in.

I'd rather be cynical and happily surprised than optimistic and disappointed.

But that would require caring enough to put the effort into deleting the account.

I'd rather just leave my account unused and taking up space. Then I don't have to visit the site.

Considering any new electric cars you buy would have to be made from materials mined and processed, manufactured into a vehicle and then shipped long distances before it even gets to you, keeping your existing car and maintaining it well is possibly better for the environment when the entire life cycle is considered.

There's only so much you can say in a chant. Not a lot of room for nuance...

If they don't have a good internet connection available for free for customers with a good mobile website, why would anyone visit and actually struggle through the ordering process?

In a society with an ageing population mobility assistance is a growing market.

Another commenter summarized the nature article linked in comments... Yes, the salt is left in the pipes, so they are flushed out at night to prevent buildup.
