Over the last 12 months, global temparature was already at +1.51°C, so the 1.5°C Paris Agreement goals are now outdated and can be safely ignored.

Close by Heidelberg in Germany there is a village called Dilsberg, built within the walls of a medieval castle on top of a hill overlooking the Neckar River.

On 13/14 December there is a Christmas market where the residents open up the historic cellars under their houses to the public and sell spiced wine and handicrafts.

The one in Helsinki is separated into 3 floors, 1 of them is for quiet reading.

In Northern Europe, that’s called a library.
The one in Helsinki has board games, media stations for watching films or listening to music, gaming consoles, PCs with design and CAD software, VR rooms, 3D printers and other fabrication machines, conference rooms, study rooms, workshops for fixing things, recording and photo studios, a shared kitchen, a cinema, a playground…

Oh, and books.

My guess is it was about who has the longest one.
