...working from home. I was surprised that working from home could drop greenhouse gas emissions by 54%. I am not saying this from the air. The study revealed this claim by Cornell University and Microsoft in the USA. Just being said, I am contributing to decreasing my carbon footprint. For the reason that I have been working from home for years now. It is not bad at all to help save Mother Earth. Have you made any efforts to lessen your carbon footprint?

Because gas emissions are mainly caused by car, working at home people do not use their car every day to go from home to the office and back.

That's very true. It will take time that our planet to be healed. During the pandemic lockdown, the earth was able to improve and heal at some point.

@Shavkat The water of the Venice canals was clean during the lockdown, many fish were back. No tourists, clean water!

We also use them here. My younger sister keeps on telling us to use them. I am glad that she recommended it.

It makes sense as the offices don't need heated or cooled

I agree. In some countries like Japan, they are letting their employees to work from home. They seem to be learning the importance of saving the earth.
