🇨🇾 Scientists Say You Don’t Need to Make Your Bed — Cypriots Rejoice 😂
▪️A new study claims that people who make their bed right after waking up are basically creating a five-star resort for dust mites.

▪️These tiny “guests” love warmth, humidity and coziness — exactly what a Cypriot bed is full of after a night’s sleep, especially if you turned off the AC to “avoid catching a cold.”

❄️ But! If you leave your bed to “air out” for at least an hour, the moisture disappears, the temperature drops, and the mites start freaking out, suffering and moving out en masse.
😩 Where were these scientists when our parents forced us to make the bed military-style every Sunday?

🇪🇺EU roadmap to climate neutrality
EU negotiators agreed a provisional deal: 90% cut in net greenhouse gases by 2040 vs 1990. European Climate Law amended to include a legally binding 2040 milestone. Flexibilities added to shield competitiveness. From 2036 up to 5 percentage points may come from high‑quality, Paris‑aligned international carbon credits, with safeguards to exclude projects against EU interests. Permanent domestic carbon removals allowed for residual emissions. ETS2 for buildings and road transport postponed to 2028. Commission will review progress biennially and may propose measures or revise the target. Agreement awaits final Parliament and Council approval; enters into force 20 days after publication.
