Quick Glance: End of German Airmail: Post Adopts Greener Transport Methods
  • The Deutsche Post has ceased the domestic transport of letters by airplane to reduce costs and improve its carbon footprint.

  • The night airmail network, established in 1961, was discontinued due to decreasing demand for letters and changes in communication habits.

  • Although the end of transport flights may increase the delivery time of letters, the Post continues to use airmail for international correspondence.

  • The transition to more environmentally friendly transport methods demonstrates the Deutsche Post's commitment to acting sustainably and adapting to current trends.

Quick Glance: Automotive Industry: Declining Interest and Growing Challenges
  • German automakers are facing a decline in popularity as employers, especially among young individuals who are increasingly opting out of automotive-related studies.

  • The decrease in the popularity of automotive studies has been evident since the mid-2010s and is particularly pronounced in universities near automotive hubs like Stuttgart and Braunschweig.

  • The Diesel scandal and the negative industry image regarding climate change have significantly contributed to the decline in student enrollments in technical fields.

  • German automakers are losing attractiveness as employers, reflected in declining applicant numbers and reduced interest from engineering and IT graduates.
