Here's an interesting article with a green twist for Highway 7 folks who work at home on the Internet.
According to the unknown writer/s, the impact of "working from home could reduce Gulf oil imports by 24 to 48%, reduce greenhouse gases by up to 67 million metric tons a year and save as much as 7.5 billion gallons of gasoline each year" (U.S.).
That's staggering! What's more, they noted that "by not commuting, an extra five weeks of free time would be enjoyed."
Now wait a minute, that's good enough for me. So, how DO you make money off this infernal addiction anyway?
Okay, here's the link again:
ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS OF WORKING FROM HOME
Editor's Note: This link leads to an article on http://www.elertgadget.com , a social networking integration program. I think there's a freebie download (which are totally useless because you can't 'really use the program' , but if you want to integrate all your sites, blogs, Facebooks, Twitters, etc. pages in one central newscast, I guess this would be one of them. Don't get me wrong. I'm not selling it; I've never tried it. Just giving you a heads up. BTW, the links within the article are ad loaded. It's a three minute read but something to think about, so check it out! (We have high speed now on the Eastern Shore!)
