Shedworking is green but...

A nice piece by Michael Graham Richard on Treehugger says that working from home is green and saves money but that most employers are still not keen. He writes:

"In these days of increasing environmental awareness and rising oil prices, telecommuting is gaining mindshare. Yet employers are still reluctant."

This follows CIO Insight Research's Mobility Survey which reveals that just over 50% of CIOs and other senior IT leaders claim their companies discourage fulltime telecommuting (although on the up side, almost one half said that their company's policy had become more pro-telecommuting over the last three years).
