On a visit to the Cornish fishing village of Port Isaac, Bob Tomlinson came across a man sitting on a chair in a sunny spot outside an old fisherman’s cottage and they chatted. He said that he rented the cottage every year for two weeks and spent most of the day sitting there and having conversations with people walking by. He liked doing this because it made him “feel human”. For the rest of his life, he lived on a housing estate and drove to work, shopped in a supermarket and hardly spoke to anyone. For these two weeks, he left his car in the car park up the hill and didn’t use it again until he headed home.
You might be thinking that this all sounds very nice, but what has it got to do with saving the planet?
