EXCERPT:

Some hear “5G” and just think it means faster connection speeds. However, it goes beyond that. As it matures, 5G is expected to alter the very DNA of our user experience in dramatic, exciting ways—from leisure to healthcare to retail to manufacturing to finance and beyond.

To imagine what’s coming, it helps to look back where we’ve been. How would your business be faring if you never adopted any mobile technology beyond the 2G world? It’s like opting to keep the abacus instead of upgrading your team to computers and spreadsheets.

In this whitepaper, we will examine some of the key drivers of 5G innovation. We’ll look at 5G as a new experience—and as a possible enabler of radically new ways to do business. Finally, we’ll also look at a timeline of our path to 5G, and what you can do to prepare for what promises to be a the next great, world-and-mind altering experience.

Just one more state-sponsored program to control the masses and restrict their resources while they thin the herd. It’s all related to sustainability, resource restriction, and new plans for “totally” controlled centralized urban areas. 

CIRCULAR ECONOMY:  MONITORING FRAMEWORK – Transform Global Economy

 

 

The transition to a circular economy is a tremendous opportunity to transform our economy and make it more sustainable, contribute to climate goals and thepreservation of the world’s resources, create local jobs and generate competitive advantages for Europe in a world that is undergoing profound changes. The importance of the circular economy to European industry was recently highlighted in the renewed EU industrial policy strategy1. The transition to a circular economy will also help to meet the objectives of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development2.

In the circular economy action plan3, a circular economy is explained as an economy ‘where the value of products, materials and resources is maintained in the economy for as long as possible, and the generation of waste minimised’.

One way of looking at the circular economy is to see how materials enter, flow within and (eventually) leave the economy. Such a visual overview can be provided by a material flows diagram, which shows all raw materials —aggregated as well as grouped by categories of materials — throughout the economy, from their extraction until they become waste.

WATER TAX HEIST: California’s, Gavin Newsom’s budget calls for new tax on drinking water – Tax on water NOT fit to drink . . .

digigod
The water is polluted!  All OUR secondary water supply is polluted . . .
 
We are and have been served up water from the secondary water supply, rain and snow melt. 
 
Rain and snow melt is captured in reservoirs after running over land that is contaminated with poisonous toxins from the OVERHEAD aerosol spraying and then flows over land saturated with fertilizers, and more. Then water treatment chemicals are added before being pumped into your municipal drinking water.
