The year has somehow simultaneously whizzed by in a blur of social distancing and working from home on a loop, and also feels like it has stretched on for years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Case in point:<\/strong> Do you remember the things that were in vogue around seven months ago? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netflix.com\/title\/81115994\">Tiger King<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.netflix.com\/title\/80996601\">Love is Blind<\/a> were the shows everyone couldn\u2019t stop talking about. (Some of us here at Enterprise are proud consumers of this type of television content. Don\u2019t judge). We really thought that two weeks of lockdown would bring covid-19 to its knees and give us our lives back, so a lot of us got \u2026 productive and creative. All of a sudden, the entire Internet was filled with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/article\/whipped-coffee-recipe.html\">whipped coffee<\/a> and sourdough bread people were making at home. There were fitness challenges making the rounds to keep everyone in shape.

In what is the contemporary version of the space race, the US and Russia are at the forefront of the vaccine dash with both countries attempting to be the first to release the highly-awaited shots. Just days after US\u2019s Pfizer and Germany\u2019s BioNTech announced their <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/15251d8f-7d6f-4f5a-a6ea-054938e64a34\">covid-19 vaccine is 90% effective<\/a>, Russia said that phase 3 clinical trials had shown the Sputnik V vaccine <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/2c64b1f9-f489-4563-ab33-86d9b6f42c9d\">to be 92% effective<\/a>. Again, a handful of days later US-based Moderna came out saying that their vaccine is 94.5% effective in preventing covid-19.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Regardless of the competition, we tip our hats to the scientists who are making leaps to<\/strong><strong> develop vaccines in record time. <\/strong>In the history of medicine, rarely has a vaccine been developed in less than five years, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/interactive\/2020\/06\/09\/magazine\/covid-vaccine.html\">the New York Times<\/a>. One of the fastest vaccines created was the mumps inoculation, which took approximately four years. Otherwise, even antiviral meds can take decades to develop.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Scientists also put their best foot forward while developing covid-19 tests: <\/strong>In the few months since the pandemic started \u2014 granted they felt like years \u2014 covid-19 tests have become more widely available with faster results and higher accuracy. Scientists are currently developing tests with result times <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bioworld.com\/articles\/435285-israels-ben-gurion-university-develops-one-minute-coronavirus-test\">as low as a single minute<\/a>, with 90% accuracy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And the medical advancements aren\u2019t just for covid-19: We got one step closer to curing<\/strong><strong> HIV<\/strong> \u2014 after the second ever patient tested negative for the virus after stopping treatment, reported <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/health-51804454\">BBC<\/a>. The patient, Adam Castillejo, was cured by a stem-cell transplantation which is now being studied as a possible treatment for other cases. However, due to it being high risk, HIV meds are probably here to stay for a bit, but have still developed enough that patients can live long and healthy lives.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Finland started generating sustainable food solutions that are beneficial for both the<\/strong><strong> environment and humans<\/strong>, by changing up food ingredients as well as the packaging they come in, according to the appropriately named <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodnewsfinland.com\/feature\/finland-feasts-on-sustainable-foods-for-the-future\/\">Good News from Finland<\/a>. The Finnish are also looking into alternative sources of protein instead of poultry and meat products that cause environmental damage as livestock farming increases greenhouse gas emissions. Companies are creating natural protein alternatives that can be grown and harvested anywhere, even in space.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And of course, Elon Musk sent two rockets to space:<\/strong> The first SpaceX rocket was launched into orbit in May, marking the first time Americans went to space in a decade as well as the first commercialized space-bound aircraft, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vice.com\/en\/article\/v7ge79\/how-to-watch-spacex-nasa-dragon-launch-live-feed\">Vice<\/a>. The two astronauts aboard the Falcon 9 rocket spent a historic <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/12c9b225-ff78-4c1b-a96c-619116587737\">two-month mission<\/a> in the International Space Station(ISS). SpaceX also launched a second \u201cspace taxi\u201d with four astronauts bound to the ISS in <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/cea00ad2-a2d1-428e-91d9-9d73aad5a9ae\">mid-November<\/a>.

The study looked at samples from over 10k locations in 34 countries, and found that nitrogen dioxide decreased by 60%, while particulate matter \u2014 the sum of liquid and solid particles suspended in the air \u2014 decreased by 31%. Though the reduction may have been temporary, it demonstrates how simple lifestyle changes could go a long way to rapidly decreasing pollution levels in urban areas.<\/p>\n<p><strong>China announces its commitment to carbon neutrality by 2060: <\/strong>It\u2019s going to take a while, but China has announced it is aiming to reach carbon neutrality \u2014 removing as much CO2 from the environment as it produces \u2014 by 2060, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/science-environment-54256826\">BBC<\/a> reports. Though it comes with a caveat of a long timeline, this is pretty significant news considering that China is the world\u2019s biggest carbon producer and is single handedly responsible for 28% of emissions. China is also the biggest financier and consumer of fossil fuels, meaning its commitment is likely to have an impact on the global oil industry and reverberate much further afield. And it\u2019ll only be a decade behind the EU, which is <a href=\"https:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/clima\/policies\/strategies\/2050_en\">aiming for carbon neutrality by 2050<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BP is moving towards sustainable energy:<\/strong> The oil producer plans to <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/70c6b4c4-fe9f-423f-8dac-0e6151760c39\">slash its oil and gas<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/70c6b4c4-fe9f-423f-8dac-0e6151760c39\">production by as much as 40%<\/a> over the next 10 years, in its bid to become an integrated energy company, CEO Bernard Looney <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bp.com\/content\/dam\/bp\/business-sites\/en\/global\/corporate\/pdfs\/investors\/bpweek\/bpweek-cmd-intro-slides-and-script.pdf\">announced<\/a> in September. The company plans on increasing its renewable energy generating capacity 20-fold, and investing USD 5 bn a year in low carbon energy sources. This is a major step, since the world is moving faster than ever towards renewables, and a traditional oil producer like BP can help accelerate the trend. Solar and wind power outpaced traditional forms of energy for the first time ever, with solar power alone making up 45% of new energy generated in 2020, and solar and wind combined going from less than a quarter in 2010 to two thirds this year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2020-09-01\/the-world-added-more-solar-wind-than-anything-else-last-year?sref=mmeFTDW1\">Bloomberg<\/a> found.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In animal kingdom news, a thought-to-be-extinct dolphin is alive and well: <\/strong>The Delphinus Delphis, known to its friends as the short-beaked common dolphin, has returned to the adriatic sea after it was thought to be regionally extinct, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/inhabitat.com\/rare-dolphin-species-spotted-in-the-adriatic-sea\/\">inhabitat<\/a>. Apparently, a ridiculous policy begun in the 1970s had encouraged the killing of the dolphins as pests to prevent them competing with humans for fish, decimating their numbers and putting them on the International Union for Conservation of Nature\u2019s endangered species red list. Four of the dolphins have been spotted in the Adriatic over the past four years, which may not seem like much, but is a step towards regaining the biodiversity necessary for a healthy seas.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So is the adorable elephant shrew: <\/strong>This rodent-like mammal, also called the Somali sengi was spotted in Djibouti after 50 years of laying low, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/science-environment-53820395\">BBC<\/a> reports. Though small as a mouse, the little-studied sengi is in fact a distant relative of the elephant. Its rediscovery by a scientific expedition will give conservationists and biologists the chance to become better acquainted with the shrew.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2026 and some actual baby elephants in Kenya:<\/strong> The country\u2019s Amboseli National Park saw the birth of over 170 calves this year, compared to 113 in 2018, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2020\/08\/14\/902177466\/some-good-news-an-elephant-baby-boom-in-one-kenyan-national-park\">NPR<\/a> reports. The African elephant is classified as a vulnerable species and is threatened by loss of habitat and continued illegal poaching, so baby elephants are definitely good news.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2026 and an adventurous brown bear in a Spanish national park:<\/strong> The 3-5 year old male was the first to be spotted in North-West Spain\u2019s Invernadeiro national park in 150 years, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/2020\/may\/03\/brown-bear-spotted-in-north-west-spain-for-first-time-in-150-years-galicia\">Guardian<\/a> reports. The bear is thought to have crossed over from Southern Spain, indicating that years of conservation efforts on the national park are paying off, attracting species that once roamed, but had long since abandoned the region.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/bp\/\">BP<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/carbon-footprint\/\">carbon footprint<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/china\/\">China<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/climate-change\/\">climate change<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/good-news-the-environment\/\">Good News: The Environment<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"568478\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"568478\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">6<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">GOOD NEWS: POLITICS<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2020\/12\/04\/good-news-of-2020-politics-are-becoming-more-gender-balanced\/\">\r\n                            Good news of 2020: Politics are becoming more gender balanced                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2020\/12\/04\/good-news-of-2020-politics-are-becoming-more-gender-balanced\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();

Harris\u2019 election is momentous for its break from the l<a href=\"https:\/\/history.house.gov\/Institution\/Presidents-Coinciding\/Presidents-Coinciding\/\">ong line<\/a> of exclusively white men that have filled the position before her. As the daughter of Indian and Jamaican immigrants, she will also become the first US vice president of South Asian descent. \u201cTogether, we showed little girls across the country what\u2019s possible,\u201d she said on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KamalaHarris\/status\/1327257394456522753\">Twitter earlier this month<\/a>.

The current coalition government for which these members serve brings together an odd pairing between the right wing Austrian People's Party (OVP) and the country\u2019s environmentally minded Greens party.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Germany is also pushing for gender parity in business: <\/strong>Germany announced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dw.com\/en\/gender-equality-germany\/a-54086234\">earlier this<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dw.com\/en\/gender-equality-germany\/a-54086234\">year<\/a> that it will be putting into force a new national strategy to address lingering gender inequalities at the workplace and in leadership positions. The nine part initiative, which has been backed by the country\u2019s cabinet, would focus on mending wage and pension gaps that currently see women on average earning <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thejakartapost.com\/news\/2020\/07\/09\/germany-unveils-plan-to-boost-gender-equality.html\">20% less<\/a> than their male counterparts. Some 600 companies would also be required to have women make up 30% of their executive boards in an effort to boost female representation in leadership positions \u2014 which lags behind at only 15% of the country\u2019s total private sector board seats. The rule would mark an increase from the current 105 companies the German government had previously selected to meet the requirement. The country\u2019s \u201cStrong for the Future\u201d plan would further expand the gender equality mandate from being a Women\u2019s Ministry issue to becoming a central tenet of all government agencies in Germany.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/politics\/\">politics<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"568480\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"568480\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">7<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">GOOD NEWS: THE CULTURE<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2020\/12\/04\/good-news-of-2020-the-cultural-reawakening\/\">\r\n                            Good news of 2020: The cultural reawakening                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2020\/12\/04\/good-news-of-2020-the-cultural-reawakening\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();

Art Parking saw weeknight drive-in film screenings at an old train station, along with weekend live outdoor theater and music performances throughout Prague. Key to the movement was the desire to meet the appetite for live art, during a period where virtually everything had shifted online, according to festival organizers. With ticket sales high, they\u2019ve looked at rolling the festival out to cities throughout the country, they said.<\/p>\n<p class='web-image'><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ent.news\/2020\/11\/Parasite-Oscar-win-1600px.jpg?ssl=1\" alt='enterprise'><\/p>\n<p><strong>Acclaimed South Korean film Parasite swept the board at the Academy Awards:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/film\/2020\/feb\/07\/parasite-review-bong-joon-ho-south-korean-satire\">Described as<\/a> a \u201csuperbly written, horribly fascinating comedy-drama\u201d by the Guardian\u2019s notoriously selective film critic Peter Bradshaw, Parasite addresses \u201cstatus envy, aspiration, materialism, the patriarchal family unit and the idea of having (or leasing) servants.\u201d To say more than that would give the game away.
