Drowning Doesn’t Look Like Drowning
Drowning is not the violent, splashing call for help that most people expect.

“Working less is the most underrated climate solution”. We often talk about system change, but shy away from the systems that shape our daily lives. A shorter working week could reduce emissions, improve lives, and shift values away from consumption. 🌍
