An #EV is a good way to cut #carbonemissions, but so, it turns out, is a four-day #workweek. Do them both, and a thousand other things—and fast—and we might have a shot.

"It’s not just you: The planet wants a 4-day workweek, too
(...) A recent U.K. trial, billed as the largest to date, with 61 companies and about 2,900 workers — also run by 4 Day Week Global — found that 70 percent of workers reported a reduction in burnout by the end of the six-month trial, and 40 percent experienced improvements in their sleep. An overwhelming majority of the companies opted to continue with the shorter workweek after the trial ended.
It makes sense that a reduction in work time would help with things like stress, fatigue, and job satisfaction. But the research revealed another, less-reported benefit that may come as a surprise: The four-day workweek also shows potential for the well-being of the planet.
(...)
One clear climate benefit seen in the trials: commute time. Across the full sample, which now includes four trials in different parts of the world, commute time has fallen by about a half hour per week."

Monday evening question:
What #videogame #soundtrack helps you get through the workday? Recently, Sapphy has been relistening to the The Streets of Whiterun at the office and it's really helped her keep on task.
Please reshare and tell us what you're listening to through the #workweek.

All day hammock day! After 7 days of intens labour with chainsaw, hoe, drill and hands today I need rest and my body to recover.
With my verbena-from-the-garden tea...what else. ;)

See? So many #social and #environmental benefits. “The most major benefit of the 4-day #workweek would be to lower #emissions through the reduction of #commuting. A study by Greenpeace estimated that the 4-day week could cut commuting miles by a staggering 558 million per week. Without the exhausting and frustrating nature of multiple long commutes, #employees may even be inspired to ditch the #car and get out on their #bikes to get around.” https://sustainabilitymag.com/articles/will-a-4-day-work-week-cut-emissions

Love it. Scale it. “A four-day #workweek pilot was so successful most firms say they won’t go back. 15 percent of employees who participated said that “no amount of money” would convince them to go back to working five days a week.” https://www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/2023/02/21/four-day-work-week-results-uk/ #worklifebalance #worklife #workload

How widespread could the four-day workweek really be?
By Joanna York
Many trials of the shortened workweek have shown positive results. It’s an increasingly viable solution for some firms – but for others, this new set-up won’t be on the table.
