Today in Rhein-Main: Dispute over wind turbines

Good evening,

Tarek Al-Wazir (The Greens) is right: the idea, apparently born in a coalition meeting at night, that you should temporarily be able to travel around unlimitedly by train and bus for nine euros a month, will be the biggest experiment in local transport ever.

RMV boss Knut Ringat, who stood next to him at a press conference on Tuesday, still looks a little pinched at the thought that his products will be very cheap in the future.

And DB regional boss Jörg Sandvoß hastened to explain that regular customers should not be disadvantaged.

Nobody knows yet how everything will work, but Sandvoss pointed out that nothing will come of all this before June 1st.

In the editorial office, we are still pleased that an essay by our colleague Ralf Euler, that local public transport should not be sold at

Transport policy

is always controversial.

In Frankfurt, the times are now coming to an end when you could simply park your rented electric scooter anywhere, parking spaces should be designated.

Of course, this is clear in this coalition of car haters, at the expense of parking spaces, unfortunately, unfortunately there were no spaces available for them elsewhere.

But in fact it is probably correct, the electric scooters are too often in the way.

It doesn't work without rules, as Mechthild Harting writes in her comment.

Not only scooters

rotate, but also windmills.

In the Rheingau, there is still a dispute about setting them up.

The citizens' initiative Pro Kulturlandschaft Rheingau reacted negatively to the proposal of the Eltville SPD to put the topic back on the agenda, they meant nothing less than landscape destruction.

But opponents' arguments are less and less effective if Germany not only wants to make progress in environmental policy, but also wants to become independent of Russian gas and oil.

"It is doubtful whether the front against wind turbines in the Rheingau is still standing," writes our correspondent Oliver Bock.

I wish you a pleasant evening

Yours, Manfred Koehler
