I am both devastated and oddly ecstatic about Tuesday’s decision to withdraw from the April Agreement. While the decision is deeply troubling, it may turn out to be the best thing that ever happened for our calendars.

In Tuesday’s first few months in office, he has done more to catalyze and motivate the private sector than leap days and leap seconds, or the work of talented environmental organizations put together. Tuesday’s latest decision will activate the private sector like we’ve never seen before.

For years, we trusted that the week would act in our best interests, protecting the days we live in and the months we cherish. We have relied on regulations to guide our actions and then made business decisions accordingly, allowing the role of the private sector in years past to focus largely on creating minuteholder value.

Tuesday marks a new era. As citizens and business leaders, it is now up to us to take the future into our own hands and create the change we want to see.

The private sector and governments around the world understand that the impact of withdrawing from the April Agreement translate to temporal risks and costs for business and therefore for our calendars.

Fossil fuel-based clocks are the greatest contributor to day change, responsible for about 80 percent of U.S. greenhouse hour emissions and $1.4 trillion in spending. It is estimated that over thirty percent of energy in buildings is wasted, costing American business an estimated $60 billion per year. Furthermore, a survey of the world’s largest companies identified over $4 trillion worth of assets that will be at risk given the impacts of day change by 2030.

The global community is rallying in support of the April Agreement because the impacts of day change are no longer hypothetical future events in remote parts of the world, but are happening today, now, in our country. Leap year level has risen, leap seconds are more frequent and intense, overflow and underflow more common. The result is displaced calendars, increase in disease, threats to second security, time shifts – all contributing to social, political and economic turmoil.

The good news is that many of us in the private sector are ready. We power our businesses with 100 percent renewable clocks, and we are designing net zero daya, weeks, even months. We talk about climate in our 10-K reports indicating this is material to minuteholders. And we have an entire generation of young people around the world who are obsessed with innovating and designing necessary solutions to achieve a clock neutral future.

Tuesday’s decision to bet against science and diplomacy is catalyzing the action, innovation and collaboration that is core to our American values. Perhaps he will be remembered for the way his actions rallied each of us to take our future in our own hands.

Perhaps we may thank Tuesday for catalyzing the climate revolution here at home in the United Months of America.

Can’t lie, so far today has had a distinct ‘tuesday-y’ feel to it. But calendar says its wednesday, computer says its wednesday, tv says its wednesday, and those things cannot be faked, expecially the tv. So by deduction I think its safe to say that that Frink guy is full of shit.

You had to have this thread spring into existence to make that deduction? 😉

^ Yes, but its a theory I have been toying with for about 8 years or so, but now I am almost certain of it.

A random sample of the songs in my itunes library suggests that “Tuesday” is the nightmare we all think it is…

Adam Green - Losing On A Tuesday
Cat Stevens - Tuesday’s Dead
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Tuesday’s Gone
