Sleeping on the job
SirPowell thinks: Taking a nap - or how the americans call it - powernapping is a habit that is much in sync with our very biological rhythm. Unfortunately sleep is considered as avoidable but somehow weak. Working cultures throughout the world do not incorporate sleep into a regular business day. Although they might gain a completely different setup for the regular day e.g. starting earlier, staying longer, leaving later, etc. Of course this requires some alignment but international cooperations could benefit from more time overlaps due to sleep-strengthened people.

Over-reliance on technology
annbanan24 thinks: Let's face it, we're not going to move backward. We're not seeing massive increases in the members of Amish communities. And if we're not willing to give up our modern conveniences, then we've got to figure out a way of making technology work for us without ruining the Earth or lowering our quality of life. Why do view A and view B have to be mutually exclusive? Yes, technology has been at the root of our problems. But it can also be a solution. The problem is not the technology itself, it's our failure to control it and make sure it develops in beneficial ways. This could be helped a lot if governments subsidized research and development for beneficial technologies that the market cannot provide.
