2008 – Presidential candidates say, our Country needs energy independence! Going Green!
Our national dependence on foreign oil can be significantly reduced by lowering
travel (gas consumption) between work & home. American employers, utilizing
current office automation technology, could permit the work force to perform most
office tasks at home, rather than driving gas guzzling SUV's.
Those in the Office Automation business wonder why our business leaders and government
cannot work towards this objective: a national effort utilizing standard office
technologies and the Internet to transition our commuting work force to doing some
of their employers’ work at home.
To achieve this goal, our country’s leadership, via tax incentives, can motivate
employers to obtain the basic training needed to implement this automation, perhaps
by publishing a guide to the automated office at home. Businesses today already
utilize desk top computer database applications to perform routine tasks. However,
office management is reluctant to take leadership positions in permitting the performance
of these tasks from their employee's homes. The transition to this mind-set
is not that great and can be implemented gradually, with just one day per work week
at home, which is our Countries goal of 20% reduction in gas consumption within
10 years.
The benefits of lower international and domestic oil consumption are many and include
a lower national trade deficit, an impact on terrorist funding, time saved in work
travel (~1 hour/day), an increase in employee productivity, lower effects of global
warming, lower auto insurance, etc.
If you are interested in the line item requirements to carry out this national objective,
please feel free to contact me for discussions.
