If you don’t commute, you don’t pollute. It’s a simple message with a big impact. Momentum is challenging employees across the country to telecommuting 1 day during Earth Week 2013, April 22-26, to reduce commuter consumption and preserve our planet. For every individual that makes the pledge to work from home one day during Earth Week, Momentum will make a $10 donation to Green America!

1. Save 900 million vehicle
THE TELECOMMUTING
commuting miles
CHALLENGE
Work From Home 1 Day
During Earth Week 2013

2. Save 900 million vehicle
commuting miles
Every little bit helps.
Even one day can change the world.
50% of the workforce has a job that is telework-compatible
at least part time, but only 2% of the U.S. workforce
telecommutes regularly. If every employee in the U.S.
with a telecommuting-compatible job works from home
1 day during Earth Week this year, we would collectively:

3. Save 900 million vehicle
commuting miles
1 Billion
miles
900 million

4. Eliminate 423,000 tons of
greenhouse gases
Equivalent to taking 77,000
cars off the road for a year
= 10,000 cars

5. Save 2.3 million barrels of oil
valued at $185 million
= 1 million barrels of oil

6. Save 45 million gallons of gas,
$188 million in commuter savings
= 10 million gallons of gas

7. Avoid 775 traffic
injuries and deaths

8. Save 28 million
kWh in net electricity
Enough to power 2,600
homes for a year

9. That’s just one day! Think of the impact of telecommuting
just one day per week for an entire year. We have an amazing
potential to reduce commuter consumption and pollution and
preserve our planet by telecommuting even part time.
YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. WORK FROM
HOME 1 DAY DURING EARTH WEEK 2013.

10. For every individual that makes the pledge to
work from home one day during Earth Week
