We rarely think about our carbon footprint before 9am — the shower, the coffee, the commute, the scroll. But an ordinary day is full of small, invisible choices that add up to something much bigger.
In this talk, Cristina McLauchlan walks us hour by hour through a typical day in Barcelona — from waking to sleeping — uncovering the climate impact hidden inside our everyday routines. Drawing on her background in wellness and yoga philosophy, she reframes climate awareness not as guilt or overwhelm, but as presence: the simple practice of noticing what we usually sleep through.
Expect real, relatable moments (yes, your shower length counts), a few surprising stats, and practical, doable shifts — no eco-anxiety, no lectures, just an honest look at one day. Part of Barcelona Climate Week 2026. Discussion and Q&A to follow.
