Working Remotely Permanently To Solve Global Warming

It has not even been a month, and the oil industry has already been pushed to the edge. Families are discovering family members. Something good can come out of this. This pandemic has vastly strengthened the case for a rapid global rollout of 5G.



Life and work will never be the same in China as the country attempts a post-virus tech restart While the surge in use of online tools during the outbreak may subside, it has offered a glimpse of the future of working life ..... robots in hospitals, health code apps, online education and remote working ..... accelerating long-term trends such as the digitalisation of education, work and even people. ...... “Tools like this are changing the traditional way of thinking that a meeting can only happen when people gather physically,” she said. “I personally hope my school will continue using the app [after the outbreak is over].” ...... Remote working and online education tools have been among the biggest beneficiaries during the outbreak .....

a glimpse of the future of working life.

...... the digitalisation of education could democratise education resources for a large number of users at lower cost. For instance, China’s prestigious schools like Tsinghua University offered online courses on short video app Douyin during the outbreak. One user commented “I can’t believe I’m in a Tsinghua University class!” ...... wider acceptance of online life could expedite the digitisation of businesses and industries, a key part of China’s overall ambition to utilise technology to power the country’s buildout of “new digital infrastructure”. ....... remote working, e-commerce, online education, and online services will now become new options for more companies under the new circumstances ..... The buildout of digital infrastructure in China involves everything from new high-speed railway lines to smart traffic management systems, all of which will be underpinned by next generation mobile networks that enable faster data transmission speeds and greater connectivity. China has already pledged billions of yuan in investments towards building 5G networks and data centres. ...... “The coronavirus outbreak has actually called closer attention to the importance of the digitisation of people” ..... industrial internet or transportation ........ the current experiment has exposed limitations on the application of remote working and e-learning. ........ March 9, 2020. With almost no new Covid-19 cases being reported in Beijing, workers are slowly returning to their offices with masks on and disinfectant in hand. ........ While the country has the world’s biggest internet population of 854 million people, 541 million are still off the grid, with the majority located in rural villages ....... Some students in Hubei province, where the disease hit the hardest, had to hike to the top of mountains to search for an internet signal ...... “The only limitation [of remote working] is that it can only monitor computer-based work. It won't work to monitor remote plumbers or electricians or manufacturing jobs.”

2 weeks in: what we’ve learned about remote work we are discovering what it’s really like to be home with our families at all times, while also trying to stay productive and connected to our work teams. ....... a completely remote team
