Thanks in part to their ambitious renewable energy programmes, Denmark and Estonia are the world leaders in climate action, a recent assessment by a group of non-profit researchers has found. Both countries aim to complete the transition to 100% renewable electricity by 2030, notes the 2024 Climate Change Performance Index, which was complied by Germanwatch, the NewClimate Institute, and the Climate Action Network.

So why aren’t more companies succeeding? In 2018, when I was starting my business, Henning, I had a meeting with a potential investor who told me that there was very little blue sky (that’s venture-capital-speak for “market opportunity”) left within plus-size fashion because three companies had already received funding. Yes, three. “Thanks for the advice re: ‘remaining blue sky,’” I wrote back. The truth: It was bullshit — grin-and-bear-it, white-knuckle, eye-roll kind of bullshit.

My favorite purchase of 2023 is hands-down my L.L. Bean Boat & Tote with “GAY NOW” embroidered font-and-center. I sling it over my shoulder with the cheeky pride of someone who’s been out for years, but as the emblem suggests, I’m a baby gay. To be clear: I have always been a lesbian—it just took me 30-plus years to realize. In all honesty, I assumed that if I were queer, it would have been obvious in my adolescence. Since it wasn’t, I defaulted to straightness as the path of least resistance.
