Second, climate change is putting pressure on organizations to cut their carbon footprint by reducing office space (high rentals also play a big part here) and wasteful business travel.
It is absolutely obvious to us that the key factor here is the fact that over the years airlines have been continually reducing the space between seat rows to cram more and more people in.
If companies adopted work-from-home cultures, would they reduce their carbon footprints by cutting down on employee commuting, de-congesting highways to create space for effective rapid bus transport systems, and reducing need for space and energy-devouring office buildings?
"Saving space and reducing energy spending are key priorities for our customers" said Sally Wang, senior director product marketing, ViewSonic.
This would make them whiter so they reflect more sunlight back into space, reducing the sea surface temperature - which is the primary driver of hurricanes.
Ventilation dilutes the concentration of infectious particles within any confined space, thereby reducing the probability of infection.
Mergers in the energy industry are reducing its demand for office space, making it that much harder to fill vacancies.
This left Russia's Soyuz capsules as the only means of transportation to and from the space station, reducing Russia's ability to sell seats on its rockets.

In our research we aim to be able to emulate this approach in a new kind of software that can provide significant benefits in improving the efficiency of traffic flow, hence improving road space utilisation, reducing journey times and potentially, improving fuel efficiency.
Much depended on the timing of the requests - in the case of Mr Healey's request, it was made at a "time when consultation had ceased and policy seemed to be fixed", it said, thereby reducing the need for "safe space" for advice.
Higher temperatures will melt ice, which lowers the albedo, reducing reflection of sunlight back out into space.
FORBES: Maybe Climate Change Just Really Isn't A Problem After All?
Reducing the revenue and profit of the space industry might be a reasonable thing to do if such constraints supported military objectives.
While a 1-gigabyte hard drive was fairly expensive in 1995, PC hard drives of 20 GB and up are now fairly typical, reducing the need for the extra PC storage space.
His answer is simple: "We need to put technology to use to address the issues of reducing non-combatant casualties in the battle-space".
To accomplish this, the agency has fundamentally altered internal procedures by focusing more on fixed-price contracts and reducing its day-to-day oversight of commercial space companies, like SpaceX.
