My boss wants us back in the office full-time, and I'm thinking about the carbon cost.
Our company just announced a return-to-office mandate after two years of remote work. I've been figuring out the EMISSIONS from all those extra car trips, and it's a LOT more than I thought. How do you talk to management about keeping remote options for the planet's sake?
Actually, you don't need a fancy pledge to make the point. Just hit them with the raw numbers. If they care about costs at all, wasting fuel and adding pollution should matter.
Has your company made any public promises about cutting emissions (you know, like a sustainability pledge)? Might be a good angle to show they're working against their own goals.
