I just published The Joy Crisis: Why Sustainability can’t be serious and fun at the same time? If sustainability is ever going to be normalized at scale, it can’t just be serious. It has to be desirable. And for that, fun isn’t optional —it’s essential. https://t.co/UWjfk0YI6k

זו התגובה של איש קרן תקווה ואם תרצו לעיתונאי @ishaycoen על כך שהעז לדווח אמת (!) על החלטת הרבנים שלא לתמוך בהפגנת הימין. הרי מה שווים העיתונאים אם אי אפשר לשלוט בהם? פאשיסטים נמאסתם.
@ishaycoen אתה לא עוזר, לפחות אל תפריע.

“The scale of what we’re about to face is completely underestimated. I think we’re going to have to redesign everything around us, our clothes, our food, our furniture, what we value, what the price of goods is, who owns matter, how we value durability & resilience.." @indy_johar
I know @indy_johar would mega cringe to make this about him (& in many ways he is right) BUT I'm also super excited to see him celebrated in FT today, because boy does this guy work hard, learn fast & lift us all up around him to build a field. https://t.co/w6OgI1puGw

Procter & Gamble (P&G) has announced that its Lenor brand of liquid fabric conditioning will be sold in the Netherlands in a paper-based bottle, as part of trials to reduce plastics usage.
