Josef & Elise Ullmann wurden 1944 in #Auschwitz ermordet.

Ihr Sohn Otto floh rechtzeitig nach Schweden. Dort freundete er sich mit dem glühenden Faschisten und #IKEA-Gründer Ingvar Kamprad an.

Über Ottos ungewöhnliches Leben erschien 2014 ein Bestseller:

Die Nazivergangenheit des IKEA Gründers wurde vom Unternehmen, welches aktuell sein 80jähriges Bestehen feiert, nicht aufgearbeitet.

Und im Wienerwald stehen noch immer die Bäume

Ein berührendes Schicksal im Zweiten Weltkrieg.An einem kalten Morgen im Februar 1939: Am Wiener Ostbahnhof verabschieden Elise und Josef Ullmann ihren 13-jährigen Sohn Otto. Mit etwa hundert anderen Kindern besteigt er einen Zug, der ihn wegbringt von Angst und Verfolgung. In die Freiheit, nach Schweden. Otto landet auf dem Hof des Mannes, der mit 17 Jahren die Firma IKEA gründet und der damals Mitglied der schwedischen Nazipartei ist - und dennoch verbinden ihn und Otto eine enge, Jahre währende Freundschaft. Anhand von 500 im Nachlass von Otto Ullmann gefundenen Briefen, die seine Eltern ihm zwischen 1939 und 1944 aus Wien und zuletzt Theresienstadt fast täglich schrieben, entfaltet Åsbrink das Schicksal dieser jüdischen Familie und rettet gleichzeitig eine einzigartige Geschichte vor dem Vergessen.

I shall depart for the latter town in a fortnight or three weeks; and my intention is to hire a ship there, which can easily be done by paying the insurance for the owner, and to engage as many sailors as I think necessary among those who are accustomed to the whale-fishing.

Amazon loses 10% of its vegetation in nearly four decades

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — The Amazon region has lost 10% of its native vegetation, mostly tropical rainforest, in almost four decades, an area roughly the size of Texas, a new report says. From 1985 to 2021, the deforested area surged from 490,000 square kilometers (190,000 square miles) to 1,250,000 square kilometers (482,000 square miles), unprecedented destruction in the Amazon, according to the Amazon Network of Georeferenced Socio-Environmental Information, or Raisg.
