Create a sustainable home office on a budget by choosing an adjustable, second-hand chair and desk made from eco-friendly materials like bamboo or reclaimed wood. Use a monitor stand or stack books to align your screen at eye level, reducing strain. Incorporate natural lighting with LED bulbs to save energy and enhance focus. Add a few low-maintenance plants like pothos to improve air quality and aesthetics. Shop at thrift stores or online marketplaces for affordable, durable items to minimize environmental impact.
Ergonomic interventions need not be financially prohibitive. I recommend progressive investments: first, a quality chair (potentially second-hand), followed by incremental additions like monitor risers, ergonomic keyboards, and strategically placed cushions to support proper posture.
