Antarctic whales by the hundreds, the UK's generational smoking ban, and more positive news this week
from The Optimist Daily's Weekly Roundup
For the first time in history, clean energy grew faster than global electricity demand and fossil fuel generation actually went down. That's not even the most surprising thing in this episode. Arielle and Karissa cover ten solutions this week, including a UK law that bans the legal purchase of tobacco forever, a bridge that was never going to have a car lane, and the growing case for making your own life harder on purpose.
