A lot of modern jobs consist of sitting in front of a computer all day, sometimes e-mailing or instant messaging the person in the next cubicle and phoning someone down the hall. All of this could be done from home, thanks to the Internet, with many benefits to individuals, society, and the environment.
According to the 2005 Urban Mobility Report, sitting in traffic costs Americans $63.1 billion a year and leads to less time with family, more stress, and more carbon emissions. If you do all, most, or even some of your work online, working from home and "phoning it in" can make a lot of sense; consider this: participating in a video conference can reduce 99 percent of the energy used for a trans-continental flight. So, start slowly-skip a cross-country flight here, work a day at home there, and you'll be happier (and the planet healthier) for it.
