Utah: On the Cutting Edge of Conservation
AP reports that Utah will become the first state in the nation to adopt a 4-day work week in order to save energy. The new schedule will affect over 70% of the State's 24,000 workers— but not essential services such as police, fire, prisons, universities, or state liquor stores.
One administrative manager estimates that the new schedule will reduce CO2 emissions by over 3,000 metric tons each year. Not a bad start for a firmly-GOP state!

i like the part about state liquor stores being an essential service, akin to fire & police protection.

Perhaps liquor should be listed as the only essential service and the others relegated to non-essential.
