Abstract

During the Covid-19 pandemic, life in cities has slowed down. Many countries around the world have taken measures to reduce the spread of the epidemic. While flexible working strategy is being implemented in some workplaces, some workplaces have adopted the method of working from home online with the suitability of working conditions. Such strategies brought about by restrictions have also affected transportation, which is indispensable for societies and the most important infrastructure system of cities. Within the scope of this study, how much less damage to the environment as a result of not using private automobiles for home-work travels with the strategy of working from home will be investigated with the determined sample. Information about their automobiles was obtained from the people in the sample determined by the survey method. The amount of CO₂ emitted to the environment due to home-work travels was calculated and the results were evaluated.
