Yeah, I don't think that is a reliable unbiased source. Moreover, wouldn't this invite defamation suit?

For a woman in the similar age, I would say she is more deserving of Nobel Peace Prize than Malala Yousafzai.

The risk that Malala takes in advocating for women right in Islamic countries is admirable, there is no denying in that. However, her impact are minuscule compared to Alexandra's in the big picture of progression as a human race. Malala's activism has not changed much on the course of women right in the countries where religion governs the lives from family to governance.

Don't know about EU in general.. but my articles published in Springer is open access with the German initiative DEAL. I don't know if that counts as open access as the German government is the one paying for it.

> our leading politicians still debate whether climate change is real or not.

But the Great Barrier Reef is definitely no endangered, because UNESCO says so!!!

Australia is a joke of a country. It's just a Texas with ocean.

EU Commission does has some democratic element in it. As though they are not elected by the Europeans directly, they are proxy voted by their respective government.

This is not new. For example, there are also no ministry election or, yet the government of the day still put people onto that position. This is just one example, if you're coming from the US, you can even think of the even more examples of non-directly elected official making important policies.

But judging by your two comments here, you have given this matter very little thought.
