Well worth a read. @BradZarnett dismisses greening business-as-usual & silver bullet billionaires before outlining his own proposals. You may not agree with all he says, but he refreshingly cuts thro much of the rhetorical nonsense masquerading as argument medium.com/swlh/can-greta…

As we declare a climate emergency and talk of a Green New Deal accelerates - we must acknowledge the close link between working hours & carbon emissions. Research by @Autonomy_UK shows we need to work less to become sustainable. theguardian.com/environment/20… @natalieben @LabGND @NEF
1/ So often, we think that big problems require complex solutions. This is what I call the ‘complexity bias’. People who suffer from this bias have become so ‘educated’ that they don’t see the most obvious and effective solutions anymore.
