Data + IoT – Real Time Improvements: Simply defined, the term Internet of Things (IoT) is used to describe the connection of people and things – such as appliances, automobiles, electronics, and consumer goods – to the internet in order to report on configuration, usage, condition, and much more. Even better, it reports problems back to the “mothership” to make real-time improvements on the product itself or others’ use of it. The IoT is the reason you’re able to raise your home thermostat via a mobile app, wear a smart watch that tracks your health and suggests lifestyle changes, and watch a car drive by without a driver.

Electrifying the world no panacea for global warming, IEA saysedit
Driving electric cars and scrapping your natural gas-fired boiler won’t make a dent in global carbon emissions, and may even increase pollution levels. Higher electrification may lead to oil demand peaking by 2030, but any reduction in emissions from the likes of electric vehicles will be offset by the increased use of power plants to charge them, according to the International Energy Agency’s annual World Energy Outlook, which plots different scenarios of future energy use.
Electric VehiclesWhy electric cars may not reduce pollutionedit
“Electrification is a necessary part of deep decarbonization because it is relatively easy to decarbonize the power sector,” said Lauri Myllyvirta, a senior analyst at Greenpeace’s air pollution unit. “But electrification only helps if the power sector moves rapidly towards zero emissions.”
