Almost half of #EU #electricity in 2024 came from #renewables - In 2004 it was less than a sixth. Differences among member states are huge. But how can the share be >100% (e.g., 115% in Norway)?🤔

I.e., they are able to discern true from false news and erred on the side of scepticism rather than credulity.
The final target of #FakeNews is not so much that you believe them, but that you stop trusting everything, including the true news.

Once a year, we venture outside the office and go on a trip with the entire team. Even with rain and wind, we had a lot of fun.
After visiting Garmisch-Partenkirchen last year, we decided to try something new for this year's trip. Even our two office dogs joined us this year

To quantify #ClimateChange, usually the mean #temperature increase is communicated. But as the deviations from the mean are also growing, the temperature extremes are increasing much faster, like the maximum annual temperature in a weather station in NW Germany shown in the chart

#DataVisualization advise: do not use stacked bars for incommensurable (incomparable) data. The total length of a player's bar is the sum of his goals, his world cup matches* and his world cup tournaments, a number which does not make much sense.

Interesting analysis! 👆
And these are the results of the draw. 👇 The fixtures of the finals from last season #LiverpoolFC - #RealMadrid and from 2020 #PSG - #BayernMunich will be repeated, already in the round of 16! ⚽️
P.S.: This chart is not an example of best #DataViz practice. If anomalies relative to the average (1881-1910) shall be represented, why do the bars show them relative to the average+1.5ºC? The base line for the bars should be at 0, or a line or dot chart should be used instead.
