I do hope the push to WFH helps normalize remote work - that’s something I’m optimistic about.
I think it’s a stretch to say a virus pandemic will be the catalyst for climate policy change but stranger things have happened.

If this pandemic doesn’t lead to universal healthcare and climate change policy because citizens have a change in heart, it might occur because enough of those opposed to these ideas die. Not intended to be morbid or gratuitous, simply an observation.
