Make people travel sometimes dozens of miles twice a day every day, and of course there’s a carbon cost to that. Not to mention a health cost to the worker (less sleep for commute time), a mental health cost (less personal/family time), and an overall better deal for the employee (less money spent on transportation related expenses).
Plus there’s other benefits that are considered ‘bad for the economy’ but are usually good for the worker- for example easier to make breakfast and coffee at home instead of getting Starbucks.
This should be obvious.
