It's taugh, we all
know it, the climatic change is here and we are more and more aware about the consequences.
We have started to feel how our planet will change very soon and of course how
it will affect our lives. There are a lot of plans from the governments and big
companies to act, but still very slowly and without real definitive commitment
from all the actors around.
Remote working could
be a good starting point, something that is immediate and is today in your hands.
Staying one day per week at home doing remote work, can reduce almost 5% of the
C02 emissions in Europe, and if we are able to avoid some of our trips by plane we can reduce an additional 5%.
Can you imagine
what does it means?; 10% with a simple initiative, now and with a lot of additional
advantages for everybody:
-
The employee can save
money and time, is happy because additionally can pick up the kids to/from the
school and do something different breaking the routine.
-
The city reduces the traffic
-
The company will have done
a lot of activities that are not been able to be covered at the office by
different reasons, can reduce some expenses and the employees will be happy
Technology like
videoconference or any collaboration tools are already in the daily life of all of us,
we all are able to use it in a perfect way.
Then why not?
