Come to think of it, telecommuting and self-employment isn’t very power efficient. Although people don’t drive to work, there’s really no big incentive to use the most efficient devices. They cost a lot, and big companies are more likely to embrace these new technologies and products. They also get better pricing (they buy fleets of cars, hundreds of computers at a time, sophisticated heating and air conditioning and so on).
