A question regarding the article about the skyscrapers in NY
“In 2021, Hurricane Ida also bore down on the city, causing several drownings. Scientists say both tragedies were exacerbated by global warming.”

What happened to the elderly man who refused to move his car after having his tires punctured by mats of nails last winter?
Anna
Hi Anna!
The last I read about him was in The Wermlands newspaper in November.
Then he would buy a new car after living in the old one for two weeks. He then said that he intended to lift the broken car into the air and leave it at the scene.
He also told us at Aftonbladet that he would register the old car at the National Police Board.

“Microplastic can take 100 years before it disappears, if it even does,” they also write.
