- Too few homes/high costs: WFH improves it (both allowing people to live elsewhere AND improving supply).

- ICE vehicles are contributing to poor air quality/climate change: WFH improves it (less commuting, lower traffic, etc)

- Rural areas are losing population, suffering from poverty: WFH improves it (relatively affluent families can move there)

- Suburban areas have poor walkability/local shopping/facilities: WFH improves it since people will spend more time there.

The people who seem to be fighting this are corporations that hold commercial real-estate (and the media companies they run). Really just goes to show that most of their statements about the environment are just nonsense (looking at Apple in particular).
