調查：在家工作對環(huán)境的好處

For Earth Day, a global poll of 2,250 office workers discovered 77 percent believe working from home is one of the most effective ways to help the environment.

在“地球日”當天，一項針對2250名辦公室職員的全球調查發(fā)現，77%的人認為在家辦公是保護環(huán)境最有效的方式之一。

And one of the reasons for this is their commute: Over 75 percent of respondents say their commute to work is something they feel guilty about when it comes to the daily impact it has on the environment.

其中一個原因就是通勤:超過75%的受訪者表示，對上下班造成的環(huán)境影響，他們感到內疚。

The average office worker surveyed revealed they used to spend nearly an hour every single day commuting to and from their jobs — that’s five hours each week office workers could get back by working from home.

接受調查的上班族平均每天花在上下班路上的時間接近1個小時，也就是說，上班族通過在家工作，每周可以得到5個小時的補償。

Respondents are becoming more aware of their carbon footprint: A whopping 84 percent worry about their environmental impact.

受訪者越來越關注他們的碳足跡:高達84%的受訪者擔心他們的環(huán)境影響。
