There's a lot going on right now!! From COP26 to Build Back Better to local elections, it's all just a lot. This week we're looking at countries with their sh*t together and ways to process all this information. First, Elise tells us how Bhutan became one of the first carbon-negative countries in the world – and how a teenage king transformed their entire economy to focus on happiness over profit. Then Olivia goes through some tips to deal with the barrage of climate information coming at us every day, and how to find your place in the movement without taking on too much. Other topics include being paranoid that someone is reading our diary, Joe Manchin jack-o-lanterns, and how many people have actually read the full IPCC report.
