Imagine if every weekend was a three-day weekend. You would always have the perfect amount of time to spend with the people you love, and you could recharge from the work week at an easy pace. But beyond the possibilities for leisure, three-day weekends might also be one of the east ways for us to radically reduce our environmental impact. Less energy would be used, traffic would be reduced, and the costs of running businesses would be lowered. Not to mention the benefits it would have on workers. We’re not exactly close to a world where three-day weekends are the norm just yet, but by keeping it in mind when we develop policies that work with the environment and economy, we can push towards a future full of environmentally-friendly three-day weekends.
