The "Smart everything" is a concept reflecting a very specific attitude towards climate change crisis. The perspective here is to decouple the resources needed for high-tech from biodiversity and natural resources depletion. This means that the Smart everythin makers (Smart cities, centralized health systems, Internet of Things, etc.) believe that we can solve climate change crisis by creating more and more high tech solutions based on finited resources. It’s a trend in Scandinavia. So, it’s very importa to read about this Smart solutions, to understand well the spirit of it and, when it’s needed, to regulate it properly.
Presentation of the 2d Tampere Smart City Week:
"Sustainable, Intelligent and Smart City; how is it possible?
In January 2020, second time held Tampere Smart City Week will answer this question. Undetectable change is taking place around citizens, but in reality it is the result of versatile research and development that evolving technology makes it possible. The smoothness of everyday life in growing cities is the vital for sustainable urban development.
Tampere Smart City Week is designed and realised in cooperation with local actors. The Week of events presents how Tampere have solved the challenges of Smart City development and what opportunities it creates as seen from different industries."
