I mean, obviously this does matter, but given that the 1% are the ones causing as much pollution as the combined poorest 50% of the world, I feel like we need to ground bizjets a lot more than we need to noodle over whether or not office work causes more pollution than remote work.

Maybe they should focus on the carbon footprint of large companies and what they can do about it instead of constantly doing these studies that constantly demean us for trying to just live.

Four or more days a week? Are people expected to work more than 5 days a week in an office job?

if capitalists had their way you'd be working 7 days a week for 12 hours a day
