Good evening,

About liquids:
Do you have a garden and is your lawn dry and yellow rather than green?
Maybe you have bad soil, but maybe you have saved water;
there are indications that private household consumption in the Rhine-Main area has decreased.
So far, the rule has applied: water consumption increases with heat and drought.
In the hot summers of 2018 and 2019, the regional water supplier Hessenwasser also registered record values. On June 26, 2019, 426,000 cubic meters of drinking water flowed through the pipes, more than ever before.
The previous peak value of 2022 is well below the 400,000 cubic meter mark, according to Hessenwasser on Tuesday.
Mechthild Harting has researched, reported on and commented on all aspects of water consumption.
About the market:
Not everyone is in the home office anymore, but still quite a few for at least one or two days a week, because many employers make it possible.
This will hardly change, so less office space is needed;
there is currently said to be an overhang of 1.4 million square meters in Frankfurt.
And less office space will be created, because companies whose employees sit at home have less need.
One could think so.
It won't be like that, say real estate agents, but the commercial real estate experts at BNP Paribas have currently made a different calculation.
Is it plausible?
Günter Murr reports.
About Frankfurt's Lord Mayor:
Sylvia Schenk, born in 1952, was a competitive athlete, she took part in the 1972 Olympic Games as an 800-meter sprinter, she was at the head of the Federation of German Cyclists.
She is a lawyer and a member of the SPD, from 1989 to 2001 she was a member of the full-time magistrate in Frankfurt, from 2007 to 2010 she was chairwoman of Transparency International Germany.
What she says still has weight in the SPD, and outside of it too.
Regarding the Peter Feldmann case, she has to make the comment, among other things, that integrity is not just a matter of criminal law and does not begin with criminal law.
This can be read in a guest article by Schenk in the Rhein-Main-Zeitung;
in the print edition and online.
