It’s time for somebody to step in and regulate social media

I thoroughly enjoyed Alan Rusbridger’s recent article, in which he proposed a mass exodus from Elon Musk’s Twitter/X. It’s time for Elon Musk to realise his warped notion of “free speech” cuts both ways, by exercising our freedom to go somewhere else. Simon Calder begins his article on Wizz Air’s £427 “all you can fly” promotion with a question: “How does the prospect of a year of unlimited flights within Europe … for a flat fare of £9 per hop sound?” The answer is: a disaster for our climate. Despite all the industry’s hype about so-called “sustainable” aviation fuels, all independent expert analyses conclude there is no realistic prospect of scaling up clean fuels within a climate-relevant timescale.
