Gegen bessere Zugsverbindungen hab ich gar nix.
Und prinzipiell gegen Verreisen hab ich auch nix.
Aber ich hab etwas gegen die Billigfliegerei und die Billigautofahrerei und das daraus abgeleitete "Recht jederzeit billig überallhin reisen zu dürfen".
Das ist systemisch falsch.
Und nur weil ich auf die Auswirkungen der Billigreiserei auf unsere Lebensgrundlage hinweise, soll ich jetzt einen Ganz zurückschalten? Wovon soll ich zurückschalten? Dass es eh gar nicht so schlimm sei, diese Reiserei (und für mich ist der Warenverkehr da immer mit eingeschlossen!!!).
Wie darf ich das verstehen? Ich soll nicht sagen, dass deine Forderung unsere Kinder (und uns wahrscheinlich auch noch) umbringen wird, dafür sagst du deins nicht mehr?
Ich hätte dir gern ein Commitment abgerungen, dass massenhaftes Reisen ja möglicherweise eh nett für die Reisenden ist... aber für den Rest der Weltbevölkerung führt es zu lebensbedrohenden Lebensumständen. Und zu #Overtourism. Und dass es dafür Regelungen bedarf, damit wir nicht gänzlich vor die Hunde gehen.

In Europe, protests against tourism rise,
But travel, still, we shouldn't despise.
It's a chance to explore,
And learn even more,
Just be respectful of locals' cries.

The Louvre, the world’s most-visited museum and a global symbol of art, beauty and endurance, has withstood war, terror, and pandemic — but on Monday, it was brought to a halt by its own staff, who say the institution is crumbling under the weight of mass tourism.
Thousands of people took to the streets of cities in southern Europe on Sunday to demonstrate against overtourism, which they say causes housing prices to soar and forces people out of their neighborhoods. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/06/16/world/society/protesters-overtourism-southern-europe/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #society #tourism #spain #europe #overtourism
Spain's housing crisis: Locals blame tourists and speculators.
Short-term rentals are worsening Spain's housing crisis, while investor demand continues to drive up prices.
For many locals, the situation is devastating.
In cities where tourists abound,
Campaigners have started to sound.
Protests are in play,
To keep locals at bay,
Touristification concerns are profound.

How Greenland tries to avoid the over-tourism trap.
As the territory with a population of 56,500 prepares to welcome a record number of visitors this year, its Parliament has passed a law designed to encourage local businesses and limit the arrival of large cruise ships.
In Europe, there's quite a commotion,
Against 'touristification' promotion.
Protests are afoot,
To preserve what's good,
And protect local culture and devotion.

Thousands expected to march in a dozen cities against an industry they say is wrecking communities
"Thanks to screaming headlines and greater awareness of the issues, travellers are becoming increasingly conscious of their impact. Meanwhile, local communities have ramped up pressure on authorities to take meaningful action. Here's how three destinations are responding with new ideas for a more sustainable travel season."

"She spoke under a large banner that read: 'No Space [an image of a spaceship] For Bezos,' playing on his ownership of Blue Origin, the spaceflight venture. 'We have to block Bezos, we have to block this idea of this city' as a tourist haven that has driven up housing costs so that most ordinary Venetians can no longer afford to live here, she said."

There once was a man named Bezos,
Whose wedding caused quite a fuss, oh!
In Venice, they say,
It just isn't okay,
To showcase such wealth and bravado.
