“I believe that people deserve to spend more time with their families, loved ones, hobbies and other aspects of life, such as culture. This could be the next step for us in working life,” the prime minister commented on the new proposal.

      I think Sweden would be a better bet. They’ve had bigger trials and Finland’s current right wing crony capitalist government would rather see 6 day work weeks with 12 hour shifts to please their corporate overlords.

            Well, with that Atlantic current dying down, Europe might not have to worry about things getting warmer for much longer. Scandinavia especially might get quite a bit colder, like comparable to northern Canada.

              Oh if the Gulf Stream stops we are totally fucked - Finland is almost exactly at the same latitude the Northwest Territories of Canada. The capital of Finland would basically get Yellowknife type temperatures, and that would essentially be the warmest place in the entire country.

              If that ever happens I’m just going to kalsarikänni myself to death in the snowbank.
