Remote work should be an absolute thing, mandated by law, or at least strong incentives, to reduce our carbon footprint. Unless you truly need to go to a central location (laboratory, healthcare, etc.), you should work remotely. I saw a study that said 40% of SF Bay Area jobs could be remote. If all major metros went remote, this would put a dent in our CO2 output. Advantages of offices, face-to-face interaction, etc. just doesn't matter. Climate change is an existential threat according to the experts, so we should actually take it seriously and modify our society accordingly.
