>GlobeScan reported the opposite trend, however, in wealthier countries. Since the financial crisis in 2009, GlobeScan has noted a decline in people who identify as global citizens in seven countries in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD): Canada, Chile, Mexico, Germany, Spain, the UK, and the US. Over the same period, it saw a rise in identification with global citizenship in seven non-OECD countries—Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Nigeria, and Russia. Before the financial crisis, the OECD countries actually reported higher levels of global citizenship than the non-OECD ones.

The fuck? Why not give the books you want to burn away? There's bound to be someone interested.

Where I live there's this thing called "Bücherschrank" (bookcase), a (you guessed it) bookcase with sliding glass doors on a public place where you can leave books you no longer want as well as take books that seem interesting. Works great. It's taken care of by a citizen's organization.
