Maybe some good things/a win win will pop out because of the spare time you give to the employee to wander about the issue. just my 2 cents really.

I will link it to my main proposal:Settle the carbon debt and release the power of example!https://www.climatecolab.org/web/guest/plans/-/plans/contestId/1300210/planId/1308202 Taking climate leave seems like a good way to make a difference by showing example.

I'm one of the catalysts, helping provide comments and feedback, in an effort to help strengthen proposals. Thanks for beginning your proposal on the topic of climate leave. Please continue to flesh out this idea, what you propose specifically, and fill out the various sections of the description before the 6/13 deadline. You will want to ensure your response addresses how this proposal will impact the theme of this contest, shaping attitudes and behavior on climate change. Thanks for your contributions to the CoLab!
