No solution, but there’s no need to continue to contribute to the problem. Don’t roll back work from home, work on improving it.

Avg. commute is an hour/day for 11.5million Canadians, assuming even just 20km round trip, that is well over 2.5million litres every day, if everyone drove an economical car. How much of that is people who are going to sit their ass in front of a computer, something they’ve been able to do from home for two years? To say nothing of the building emissions that could be reduced long term if office buildings weren’t running 24/7 for 40hrs of personnel.

Sire plenty of jobs and roles need a physical presence. But employers blanket mandating 3-5 days a week in the office for someone to sit in a cubicle and ‘collaborate’ by making small talk by the coffee machine and ####ting in an overworked bathroom stall? There’s two reasons for that, either management can’t monitor performance properly or the economy of keeping people spending all their money and time is good for a select few.
