Interpretation of dali48 + update
Each car releases toxins - strangles the forest - and you too… (R. Nehberg)
Rüdiger Nehberg war ein deutscher Survival-Experte und Aktivist für Menschenrechte. Seine anfänglich aus Abenteuerlust unternommenen entbehrungsreichen Expeditionen nutzte er später, um auf gesellschaftliche Probleme aufmerksam zu machen. Wikipedia

Packaging material, for example Plastic cups, and bags, poisons the air and...
Übersicht mit KI
Packaging materials like plastic cups and bags contribute to air pollution through the release of harmful chemicals during their production, use, and disposal. Specifically, the burning of plastics releases toxic gases, including greenhouse gases like methane and ethylene, which can cause respiratory problems and exacerbate climate change. Furthermore, plastic production itself requires significant energy and resources, also contributing to air pollution.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Production:
The manufacturing of plastics, including those used in packaging, relies on fossil fuels and releases greenhouse gases and other pollutants into the atmosphere.
Use:
Even during normal use, some plastics can leach chemicals into food and beverages, potentially impacting human health.
Disposal:
Improper disposal of plastic waste, including burning, releases harmful chemicals into the air. Burning plastics can release microplastics, bisphenols, and phthalates, which are toxins that can disrupt neurodevelopment, endocrine, and reproductive functions.
Microplastics:
Plastics break down into microplastics, which can be inhaled and ingested, potentially leading to various health issues.
In essence, the entire lifecycle of plastic packaging, from production to disposal, contributes to air pollution and its associated health and environmental consequences.
Who recognizes in nature his siblings, knows - whom he has to lose! … (Robin Wood)
Übersicht mit KI
The quote "Who recognizes in Nature his siblings, knows whom he has to lose" highlights the interconnectedness of all living things and the potential for loss that comes with recognizing this kinship. It suggests that acknowledging our shared existence with nature, seeing it as family, means also understanding the grief and pain that can accompany its destruction or loss.
This idea can be interpreted in several ways:
Ecological Awareness:
Recognizing nature as our sibling emphasizes our responsibility towards the environment. Knowing that the natural world is related to us implies that harming it harms ourselves and future generations.
Spiritual Connection:
Some spiritual traditions view nature as a reflection of the divine or as a source of life and wisdom. Recognizing nature as kin can deepen one's sense of connection to something larger than oneself and foster a sense of reverence for the natural world.
Emotional Resonance:
The quote can also speak to the emotional impact of environmental destruction. When we see ourselves as connected to nature, the loss of ecosystems, species, and natural beauty can evoke feelings of grief, sadness, and even despair.
Ultimately, the quote serves as a reminder of the profound relationship between humanity and nature, urging us to consider the consequences of our actions and to cherish the interconnectedness of all life.

The user is likely expressing a preference or choice to utilize public transportation, specifically trains, as an alternative to owning and driving a car. This is a common sentiment, especially for those who have lived car-free for an extended period. It also suggests an awareness of the environmental and social benefits of reducing car dependency.
Here's a breakdown of the potential meaning:
"see without car since 2004 etc.":
This indicates the person has not owned a car for a significant period, likely since 2004 or even longer, and is accustomed to relying on other modes of transportation.
"take the train etc.":
This emphasizes the choice of trains as a primary means of getting around. It could also imply a broader use of public transportation like buses, trams, or subways.
Reasons for this preference:
Environmental concerns:
Reducing reliance on cars helps lower greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution.
Cost-effectiveness:
Public transportation can be more affordable than owning and maintaining a car, especially in urban areas.
Convenience and efficiency:
In many cities, trains and other public transport options offer faster and more reliable travel than driving, particularly during peak hours.
Lifestyle choice:
Some individuals prioritize a car-free lifestyle as part of a broader commitment to sustainability and a more active way of living.
Specific to Germany:
Germany has an excellent public transportation system, including U-Bahn (subway), S-Bahn (suburban trains), buses, and trams, making it easy to get around without a car.
