Work at Home and Pass Gas On Earth Day April 22
Work at Home and Pass Gas On Earth Day April 22
We decided to figure out how much working from home could do to reduce global warming. What we found was astounding. If the people who could work from home actually did, we could save 625 million barrels of oil a year(78% of our annual Gulf Oil imports), and reduce CO2 emissions by 107 million metric tons annually. The new telecommuters would save $43 billion at the pump and accumulate an extra 26 of spare time every year by not playing in traffic.
While telework offers individuals who can work from home a better work/life balance, it also offers companies real increases in productivity, higher worker satisfaction, and reduced costs. For the community, telecommuting offers reduced highway congestion, lower greenhouse gas emissions, and less dependence on foreign oil.
Earth Day is April 22nd. Let's all play hookey and pass gas!

What do telecommuters and bovines have in common? They both pass gas. The difference is, the folks who work from home reduce global warming, while the 4-legged methane factories add to it.

![]() Kate Lister (Visit Kate's Website) I started out in banking and spent six years as a commercial lender with two of the nation’s largest banks. Pantyhose convinced me to start my own home-based consulting business. But even running my own business I was still wearing them. So after 8 more years a former Navy flyer convinced me to trade my business suit for a flight suit and we bought a biplane for air tours. Over the next 16 years we became the oldest and largest barnstorming business in the country. Along the way we wrote two books: Finding Money--The Small Business Guide To Financing and The Directory of Venture Capital, both published by John Wiley & Sons. Surprisingly, both the writing and the flying we did mostly from home in our underwear, thanks to 25 eager (and fully dressed) pilots who replaced us in the air as the company grew. Now we're working on a third book, Undress For Success: The Naked Truth About Making Money From Home, and a website with oodles of useful info at Undress4 Success.com
