    How Working Less Could Solve Both Unemployment and Climate Change

    What if cutting your work week to 30 hours could actually create more jobs AND save the planet? Economist Juliet Schor has run the numbers, and the results might flip everything you think you know about productivity. In this episode, Alex Romano breaks down her research showing how Americans' obsession with working longer hours is making everyone miserable while destroying the environment. 🎯 What You'll Learn: • Why Germans work 400 fewer hours per year but report higher life satisfaction than Americans • The math behind how a 30-hour work week could eliminate unemployment completely • How your closet full of barely-worn clothes connects to climate change (spoiler: 70 pounds of waste per person annually) • The energy savings possible when we buy local food instead of shipping lettuce across continents 👤 Perfect for: lifelong learners and anyone passionate about personal growth who's ever wondered if there's a smarter way to organize society than our current "work until you drop" culture. 📍 Chapters: [00:00] Alex Romano introduces the radical idea that less work equals more prosperity [02:15] Breaking down the American vs. German work-life balance experiment [04:30] The unemployment solution hiding in plain sight [06:45] Why we throw away perfectly good stuff and what it costs the planet [08:30] Local food systems and the 90% energy reduction you've never heard about [10:15] Practical steps to start working less while living better Schor's research suggests we've been asking the wrong question. Instead of "how do we create more jobs?" maybe we should ask "how do we share the work we already have?" The answers might surprise you, especially when you see how much happier people become when they stop chasing stuff and start valuing time. 🔔 Never miss an episode: Follow Curious Machines on Spotify and turn on notifications.

  • ALLES WIRD STROM - Energiewende jetzt

    Versagt die Politik bei der Energiewende? Ein Politiker packt aus!

    Versagt die Politik gerade bei der Energiewende? Milliardeninvestitionen stehen auf dem Spiel – und die Entscheidungen, die heute in Berlin und den Ländern getroffen werden, entscheiden darüber, ob Deutschland künftig günstige, saubere Energie bekommt oder ob wir uns für Jahrzehnte neue Abhängigkeiten und hohe Kosten schaffen. Brauchen wir wirklich all die geplanten Gaskraftwerke? Warum ist Strom für Verbraucher immer noch so teuer, obwohl wir Rekorde bei Wind- und Solarstrom brechen? Und verliert ein Industrieland wie Baden-Württemberg den Anschluss, wenn wir nicht schnell genug umsteuern? Darüber spreche ich heute in ALLES WIRD STROM mit Michael Joukov. Er ist Energiepolitiker (Bündnis 90/Die Grünen im Landtag von Baden-Württemberg) und nimmt bei den Versäumnissen der Politik kein Blatt vor den Mund.
