问题     What does working less actually solve, I was asked recently. I’d rather turn the question around: Is there anything that working less does not solve? Take climate change. A worldwide shift to a shorter working week could cut the C02 emitted this century by half. Countries with a shorter working week have a smaller ecological footprint. Consuming less starts with working less—or, better yet—with consuming our prosperity in the form of leisure.
    Overtime is deadly. Long working days lead to more errors: Tired surgeons are more prone to slip-ups and soldiers who get too little shut-eye are more prone to miss targets. From Chernobyl to the space shuttle Challenger, overworked managers often prove to have played a role in disasters. It is no coincidence that the financial sector, which triggered the biggest disaster of the past decade, is absolutely groaning with people doing overtime.
选项
答案 最近有人这样问我，减少工作时间能真正解决什么问题?我宁愿反过来问：有什么问题是减少工作时间不能解决的吗?以气候变化为例。在全世界范围内缩短每周工作天数可以使21世纪的二氧化碳排放量减少一半。每周工作天数较少的国家生态足迹较小。减少消耗量始于减少工作时间——或者更好的是——以休闲的形式享受我们的繁荣。 加班是致命的。较长的工作时间会导致更多的失误：疲倦的外科医生在工作中更容易出现差错，睡眠太少的士兵更易于打偏目标。从切尔诺贝利核泄漏事故到挑战者号航天飞机爆炸事故的事实证明，过度劳累的管理者往往对这些灾难负有一定的责任。曾引发近十年来最大灾难的金融行业，绝对是员工加班的重灾区，这并非巧合。
