Host a zoom movie night..
Netflix has a good selection of movies you and yours may want to watch together and apart.
You can sync anything on Netflix through the Teleparty (formerly Netflix Party), which you can add as an extension to your Chrome browser so that the show you’re watching stops (for everyone in the party) when paused for a food or bathroom break. There’s also a chat option so that you can comment on the show or discuss during a break, although your own preferred chat option is probably easier and won’t suffer from lag.
Another option is to schedule a Zoom meeting and share your streaming content from your screen (Netflix, Prime Video, HBO, etc.) This provides the luxury of not everyone on the call needing to subscribe to the service you’re screening.
And if you’re more worried about screen quality and prefer to watch it on your big screen TV, you can watch a show or movie at roughly the same time, then share a Zoom call to discuss it after. Ideal for a binge watch of a fun series riddled with plot twists. Or to help decompress when viewing Breaking Bad or Game of Throne

ritish Columbia’s top doctor pleaded with people to buckle down and adhere to COVID-19 restrictions a little longer, Wednesday, as the possibility of a vaccine draws nearer. Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry made the plea as the province reported 834 new cases of the coronavirus on Wednesday, along with a dozen new deaths. It marked the ninth straight day the province has seen double-digit coronavirus deaths. The United Kingdom became the first country in the world to approve Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine on Wednesday. Henry said B.C. would be ready to get it to high-risk groups as soon as the shot was cleared in Canada — potentially within weeks. “I’m asking you all to continue and to do a little bit more, to do our part to slow the spread in our communities, in our families, in our loved ones, in our workplace until vaccines are available for all of us,” Henry said.

The aviation sector consumed almost 8% of oil products globally in 2019, or almost 7.5 million barrels per day according to Bloomberg NEF’s 2020 Aviation Fuel Outlook. In 2020, Covid-19 has grounded much of the world’s aircraft, leading to almost a halving of fuel consumption. Long-term, however, appetite for air travel should continue to grow. With few alternatives and without significant policy intervention, air miles will continue to be powered by fossil fuels. This research note analyzes the key themes driving consumption of aviation fuels to 2050.
