CARBON
Video-Conferencing, Crypto-Currency, Digital Work, Learning, Financial Advice, Education and Health, TH, TM and VC with 5-G and more have a meaningful carbon footprint today, and if industry trends continue it will soon become much worse.

TeleMedicine
Climate change and carbon footprint aside I think the evolution to telemedicine is a natural one. Just like every other service that people need or consume everything is moving to a more digital platform to enhance efficiencies and accessibility. Telemedicine or virtual medicine is not going away and will likely need to be sharpened and refined as we learn more about its impact on the medical industry as a whole.
I personally think it’s awesome that we can click a few buttons and get connected with the healthcare professional especially in times of covid where isolation with certain symptoms is for the betterment of your surrounding community.
