I’ve never intended for this newsletter to look like a news feed, but there were some truly awesome stories I came across this week that show just how diverse the approaches to enviro sustainability can be.
Italy has made safeguarding the environment part of its constitution. Part of the law states that “private industry and private economic initiatives must not damage health and the environment”. Very cool.

Norway hit a stellar record in Jan 2022 - just under 84% of new cars registered were electric vehicles. Hybrids were at around 11%, meaning petrol and diesel only made up less than 5%.
Huge jump from a year ago - in Jan 2021 their EV registrations were 53%.
A research team built 3D-printed robots out of 100% biodegradable 3D printing ink - made from gelatin and sugar!
They’ve said the squishy robots could be valuable for things like surgeries - the soft bodies can be reused and reshaped up to 5 times, then completely dissolve without a trace.
