Does Remote Work Contribute To Energy Conservation and Decrease Carbon Footprints
Remote workers have a beneficial impact on the environment. Working from home saves energy and supposedly minimizes carbon footprints. However, I'm not in full agreement with every scheme presented that claims to cause environmental destruction. Many are not a pollutant at all and quite necessary for human, animal, and plant survival. For example let's take carbon: Carbon is fundamental for all life, acting as the crucial mainstay for intricate organic molecules such as DNA, sugars and proteins, that construct and fuel living organisms on the planet. Its unique ability to form four stable bonds allows it to create the diverse and stable structures necessary for life, making it the central element in the carbon cycle, which cycles carbon atoms between the atmosphere, oceans, land, and living things. Therefore, decreasing our carbon-footprint is more akin to destroying the planet. So w hy the big fuss about carbon footprints? Plants use carbon dioxide (CO2) from the sunl...
