Unforeseen upsides of CV by bluelagos 20 Mar 2020 10:18
I reckon there must be quite a few, not to downplay the downsides. What are the genuine plus points of the current crisis?

1. Many parents will get to appreciate / better understand the difficulties of motivating and engaging kids in learning. So a likely increase in how society sees/values those who work in education.

2. Engaging with the outdoors. Suspect many stuck at home will soon be going stir crazy. Walks, cycles and other outdoor activities may be the only way to get fresh air, exercise in the coming weeks.

3. Engaging with the neighbours. This is already happening, apparently I was the 4th person to offer a shopping run to an elderly neighbour the other day.

Edited for those too lazy to read the thread :-)

4. Reduced smog / pollution from lower traffic volumes.

5. Increased homeworking as people are forced to do it / learn how to do it.

6. Appreciation of supply chains and their fragility.

7. Mr and Mrs Swansea_Blue get to go on a run :-)

8. World peace and Trump gets kicked into touch

9. Dav_blue sees more of his kids...

Must be loads more?
