If these companies want to take climate change seriously, they in fact should make any role that can be worked remotely, well remote. After apple/facebook/google put in their company wide wfh policy during the initial covid outbreak it was so refreshing to see unclogged freeways and clear air in the sfbay area. I'd hate for california resorting to taxing these companies due to climate change but having a job that can be done anywhere and forcing a brutal commute on employees is bad for the environment, bad for the employees mental and physical health and just doesn't make any sense in a post-covid world.
