Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Reduced greenhouse gas emissions Work from home avoids the commute to work, which saves not only time but also transportation cost. Lesser commuters eventually result in lower greenhouse gas emissions. If all employees start working from home for even half of the week, the gas emissions will reduce drastically.

Detailed explanation-2: -Suggested tip to determine which one to use, “work from home” and “work at home". Since “from” is politically stronger for a first person statement, it is better to use “work from home” Ex: I will work from home. However if you are referring to second or third person, it sounds better using “work at home".

Detailed explanation-3: -A company’s culture is also part of a work environment. For instance, some companies have a formal culture and expect workers to dress in suitable work attire and follow strict protocols, whereas others allow employees to dress more casually and grant them more freedom in the execution of their duties.
