What would you say if there was a simple way that the whole of the western world can cut emissions by 13%, save huge sums of money, make a large portion of workers happier and vastly improve public services with one simple rule change.

Utah in America has changed it’s working hours to 8-6 o’clock and taken the Thursday off.. the effects of which have been sum-what surprising.. Workers are happier while still putting in the same amount of hours; pollution has reduced as people use their cars less on the extra day; people are more relaxed; productivity shoots up.

Think of it as the opposite of Dolly Parton singing 9 to 5. Sounds great to me.
