Peter-Vincent Schuld Coal-fired power stations must be closed, according to the experts. How do poorer countries in the world deal with the climate issue when their own economies do not even provide for the minimum livelihood of people? What are the consequences of the climate targets for the economy? What has been going on in […]
Peter-Vincent Schuld Whatever you may think of U.S. President Donald Trump, his decision to move the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem shows great courage. Only the Czech government had the guts to follow Trump’s decision and openly recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. Trump’s decision is a principled choice. I think that those who argue that this […]
Peter-Vincent Schuld Of course, I’ve seen a lot of misery in my career as a photojournalist. Injury, grief, death, displaced persons, disasters and here and there a solid crisis area. Although I am still no stranger to the adrenaline, to go to work in the event of an emergency, I no longer feel the need […]
Bernd Carpenter The beautiful nature gives people a truly good feeling. More than 27,000 men and women in green turn the fields red every year to share the shot animal with loved ones through the creation of suffering. Whether it’s a nuisance, overcrowding, or just for fun, many animals are outlawed in seasons that run […]

But the taxation of energy consumption is also a hot topic in the Netherlands. In 1996, the energy tax was introduced in […]
Peter-Vincent Schuld Nothing in a society remains the same. The same goes for the economy. Factories are closing, people are losing their jobs, brands are disappearing. Even if they were once iconic. Even at the end of the 19th century, Antwerp had a pull effect on the Dutch. Actually, with the exception of the war […]
Peter-Vincent Schuld Our society has associations of frustrated and know-it-all individuals. Equipped with a big mouth with the social relevance of a mayfly and the mind an amoeba. If you don’t have an opinion of your own, you’ll be talked into one. Those who are a little less strong in their shoes can expect so […]
Peter-Vincent Schuld Will the gas tap be closed further in the north of the Netherlands? Will new gas-fired power plants open in Belgium? The Netherlands and Belgium partly share the same language, we were once, a long time ago, 1 country, but nowadays our interests are and remain sometimes divergent. The Netherlands is facing serious […]
