I think this is why self-care has to be collective and collectively fought for. It cannot be individualistic or it simply will not work for the people it needs to work for most. Just for the rich who only can do it consistently bc of their exploitation of other people.
May’s very special issue of @BritishVogue is on newsstands from today.

Decarbonization, as investment layers.
1. Renewable energy: ~$400bn a year, flat
2. Energy transition (+electric transport, storage): $200+ billion, growing
