New York City : outdoor dining, parallel. Paycheck protection loans: if you build an outdoor dining area, you can be forgiven the cost by govt. DeBlasio has made outdoor dining permanent. Other cities considering doing the same. Gavin Newsom. A new president. One theme is green. Carbon emissions. Zoom calls: Purdue study: if anyone turns off video, can cut carbon emission by 96%. 2020 was a great year for some rich people, esp venture capitalists. An all-time top year, have invested $130 billion. Huge number of start-ups.
