Work Near an Open Window and Avoid Viewing Sunlight Through Glass

If possible, place your desk near a window and ideally open it. Sunlight through an open window is described as far more effective than through glass; viewing sunlight through a window is said to be 50 times less effective because windows filter blue wavelengths important for the wake-up signal.

For those of you that can place your desk near a window, and even better to open the window, that would be really fantastic. Why would I say open the window?
