Instead of how things are going on in the industrial park, I found this. If I were cynical, I could see this as the last gasp of a dying society
These are really first world 1a+ problems.

...SD are right wingers
"2024-05-20
I C (SD) and T L (SD) have
submitted a motion to remove the information on carbon dioxide equivalents for each dish from the menus of the schools in Luleå municipality.
How dare they make such a disgustingly insane request!!
On 27 March 2023, the municipal council resolved in § 46 that the motion can be submitted and forwarded to the municipal board for preparation.
An application (SD) has been submitted requesting the deletion of information on the carbon dioxide equivalents of individual dishes on the menus of Luleå Municipality's schools. According to the applicants, this contributes to increased climate anxiety, which the applicants believe is both unnecessary and harmful to children and risks further increasing the mental health of our young people.
One of the responsibilities of the Labour Market and Education Administration's catering services is to actively work to reduce the climate impact of food. Today, data is available for kg Co2/kg of food purchased and the target is a carbon dioxide equivalent of no more than 1.5 kg Co2/kg by 2025. This target has already been achieved this year, 2023. The target is one of several quality targets for the food category adopted by the City Council 2021-08-16 § 197. The Children and Education Authority's business plan also includes the target that school meals should have a low climate footprint.
There are currently no guidelines or requirements that the carbon dioxide equivalent of each dish on the school meal plan must be stated. However, as part of school education, children and pupils should develop the ability to deal with sustainability issues by learning for sustainable development. School meals are part of education in the school system and learning related to meals is developed together in each individual unit.
The system currently used by school kitchens does not allow the carbon dioxide equivalent of each dish to be calculated. As the carbon dioxide equivalents are not currently given for the individual dishes on the menus of the schools in the municipality of Luleå, the Administration for Labour Market and Education has proposed that the Committee for Children and Education and the Committee for Labour Market and Upper Secondary Education recommend that the City Council decide to respond to the application.
The Labour and Secondary Education Committee decided to recommend that the City Council consider the application as answered. During the discussion of the matter, I I (SD) entered a reservation against the resolution.
The City Council decided 2024-05-06 § 128 to recommend to the City Council to consider the request as answered. During discussion of the matter, I V (SD) entered a reservation against the resolution.
Decision-making process
The Chairman puts the proposal of the Municipal Executive Board and Ingrid Cannerfelt's proposal against each other and finds that the Municipal Council approves the Municipal Executive Board's proposal."
The motion was not approved and was therefore rejected. Children can continue to learn about the carbon footprint of school meal, while a company that would love to save millions of tonnes of CO² waits for the municipal executive committee to announce that it has made a legal nomination after the fifth attempt.
Honestly - I haven't the slightest idea what the status of this decision is. But now I know what the education of future generations is all about.
They are producing climate zombies. For shure, no Furphy! as I learned today.) They produce climate zombies that are so jaded from the pedagogical squeeze mill and thought washing that they will only call for climate. Cliiiimate ... cliiiimaate ... cliiiimaaaate
Mum, this cook is evil Our school meal's footprint has not adjusted linearly downwards. You our parents should demand strict action from the others in the kitchen over there! Otherwise things will end badly for our planet. You don't want that, do you
I just fear that things are even more insane in my own xy-wing city parliament
The first step here would be to debate whether the menu is formulated woke enough and gender-conform and whether it adequately takes into account all religions, especially one over the others.
Only then would a committee be formed, costing two or three millionette to determine which CO² limits are appropriate. Then, with German thoroughness, a CO² key is calculated for every single ingredient in every conceivable dish. Then declarations of commitment are formulated which the chefs have to sign. The chefs then have to assign their scarce specialised staff to calculate and check the footprint for each dish on a weekly basis and then have it approved using the four-eyes principle. The menus are then printed out so that they can be kept as proof for the next but at least 10a for documentation purposes. But the menus are printed on recycled chlorine-free bleached paper. All of this incurs costs that are added to each meal.
This is where it differs from here. I think I have heard that in Sweden mealtimes at school are free. But that is unfair because the rich benefit unjustly was said in the radio. Never mind.
Please don't take me seriously, especially not in the bar. That all has also left its mark on me.
