No, annual leave actually. Hadn't had a proper break in ages - wanted to take the whole two weeks in tassie, but dog sitting only available for a week. So I have a shit tonne of errands and things to do and might even get some riding in...Flexi day, done even get me started...
burning coal, burning jet fuel..same same but different
The Carbon Neutral Charity Fund has a carbon footprint calculator. Not sure it will tell you where the quick wins are but it does break down footprint by categories.Looking locally for the moment, is there a break down of personal impacts on CO2 and methane etc split into various categories like travel (land, sea and air), food, domestic consumption etc? Look at the low hanging fruit.
If we sacked all the public servants and closed all the data centres...Rotorburn would basically cease to exist.I think that a massive contributor to energy use is the sit-down workforce!..so many more jobs with people sitting on computers in heavily air conditioned micro climates..for every bunch of oxygen thieving public servant with their arses parked on chairs, there is an equally large and unnecessary data center or server room using twice as much electricity, so they can do SFA all day and write shit on social media and personal interest forums!
Why limit to public service. Part of the reason why we can't solve CC is this 'jobs' mentality. We are stuck in the industrial age thinking where we do 40+ hours a week and most of us just piss fart around for most of it. I'll contend that if we simply shortened the working week to 3 days climate change would have more of a shot. People would be healthier, happier and actually have the time to ride bicycles more, banter on RB and the economy would shift significantly.If we sacked all the public servants and closed all the data centres...Rotorburn would basically cease to exist.
3 day work week is the dream right there.Why limit to public service. Part of the reason why we can't solve CC is this 'jobs' mentality.

I disagree (surprise surprise!)Why limit to public service. Part of the reason why we can't solve CC is this 'jobs' mentality.

This is the bs part of a job that I am talking about. Don't get me even started about environmental compliance. I've spent over a year dealing with trying to cut some trees on my property and realised that the net effect of the policy was all my neighbors decided to lop all their trees prior to the policy coming in. Talk about perverse effects!we probably spend half of our time inputing information and the like on either PC or field based tablets while the actual nuts and bolts work gets pushed back and builds up to the point of failure..I cant see the point of all this
3 day weeks? Every week?3 day work week is the dream right there.
For you? 4 days.3 day weeks? Every week?
Not needing to work 5 days 40 hours reduces transport and office load significantly. Just on cat picture hosting alone, it would save mountains of server energy. Folks would actually take the extra time to ride to a place instead of driving there to save time.What thread is this again?
It's sooooooo insanely obvious that the FF support the airline industry gets MUST STOP!What about work remotely from Japan? - Qantas has got $350 flights at the moment.
Fuck. I resign.For you? 4 days.
I started doing 4 day weeks about 2 months ago, but it took 2 1/2 years in negotiations and having to find a 3rd person for our team to get it over the line..Giddyup!For you? 4 days.
