The street that my mum lives in is a one-way street, but wasn't marked as such on #Google Maps. This caused many drivers to drive the wrong way. I have tried to edit it on Google Maps (there is such functionality), but to no avail. No matter how often I submitted a change (with photos of street signs!), Google said "Sorry, we could not verify it".

Solution: Edit the street on #OpenStreetMap! A few months after I did this, Google seems to have stolen the data, as it regularly does, and now the street is correct in both datasets!

We need "whatever it takes" to preserve global climate (1.5C), not less. What the ECB did for the Euro will be done in #COP27 for the planet = humanity? Hopefully but doubtful, unfortunately. https://youtu.be/tB2CM2ngpQg
