Did you know that for every one dollar earned by a man, a woman earns around 80 cents? That’s a petty big gap. So what would happen to the economy if it was one for one?

The #MeToo movement has put gender inequality in the spotlight from London all the way to Hollywood.

The gender pay gap is the difference in median earnings between a man and a woman. It’s expressed as a percentage of men’s earnings So if the gender pay pap is 20%, that means a woman for every one dollar earned by a man.

So why do women earn less than men?

There are a lot of pieces to this puzzle. Let’s use some fictional characters here in the U. K. to try to put it together. Meet Sally and James. Let’s pretend they both start working in full-time jobs at the same age. Research from the U.K. government shows Sally is likely to work in the caring, leisure and service industries, plant or secretarial job. James, meanwhile, is more likely to work in skilled trades or as a process, plant or machine operator. These differences in occupations account for a big part of the pay gap.

But there’s another important factor, too. Yep, motherhood. Even though Sally and James start out making about the same amount of money, the pay gap really starts to widen in their mid-30s and 40s. Sally might stop working or start working part-time for a while to raise a family, and when she comes back to work full-time, she cams a lot less than her male counterparts. Not to mention, it’s estimated women like Sally account for 75% of the world’s total unpaid work, including crucial tasks to keep households running.

One thing to note is that even after looking at differences in occupations and work hours, the U.K government found that 64% of the gender pay gap couldn’t be explained, and some see this as evidence of discrimination in the workplace.

But regardless of the causes of the gender pay gap, most experts agree leveling it out will have big-time economic benefits. One study found that equal pay would cut the poverty rate of working won half and produce an additional income of around $512 billion to the U.S. economy. Another report found that if women in developing countries were paid as much as men, they could earn an extra $2 trillion. That’s an 18% bump in pay plus. There are economic bonuses just from putting more women to work. In 2017, just under half of working-age women participated in the Labor market, that’s compared to 75% of men. If as many women worked as men, the IMF estimates GDP would increase by 5% in the U.S., 9% in japan, 12% in the UAE., and 27% in India. The IMF also found that bringing more women into the boardroom can directly boost a company’s bottom line.

Some countries haven’t been able to ignore these numbers. As of 2017, the U.K mandated that companies with more than 250 employees report gender pay gaps in the workplace. This year, Iceland enacted a first-of-its-kind law that forces companies to eliminate pay gaps.

Some companies are creating more flexible policies for women who want to work full-time and have children, and for men to take paternity leave. Agencies like the UN promote higher education and skills training to bring more women into the workforce.

These efforts look like steps in the night direction. But research shows it will still take 100 years to close the global gender gap. And for many people here, closing the gap isn’t just a women’s issue, it’s an economic issue, too.

The miry bump on the back of Dave Williams’ had is barely noticeable—most people would miss the rice-grain-sized lump between his thumb and forefinger a firm. It is only when the 33-year-old opens his front or with a wave of is hand that it becomes clear something strange is going on. Embedded under Williams’ skin is a microchip implant- an electronic circuit inside a pill-shaped glass capsule-that can be used much like a contactless credit card.

Williams, a systems engineer at software firm Mozilla, is one of a growing number of so-called “biohackers” who are choosing to amend their bodies with technology. In Williams’ case, he chose to implant a radio frequency identification (RFID) chip into his hand out of curiosity. The procedure has essentially turned him into a waking contactless smart card. By registering the tag with a variety of devices, he can use it to trigger certain functions, such as transferring his contact details to a friend’s mobile phone. “I have the world’s worst memory,” says Williams. The fact that he now has a gadget on him at all times that opens doors and unlocks his computer one that he can’t leave at home or forget-is a huge advantage. “It’s a fun to give someone my number and email touching their phone to my hand.”

The trend of microchip implants has sparked alarm over whether wireless implants could be used to keep tabs on employees by tracking their movements, and civil liberties groups warn they could be used intrude upon privacy in other ways. Many of those already working with the implants, however, are baffled by this concern.

“It is pretty easy to pick up this kind of information on a person without an implant,” says Kevin Warwick, a professor of cybernetics and deputy vice-chancellor at Coventry University, who became one of the first people in the world to have an RFID chip surgically implanted into his forearm in 1998. RFID technology is already attached to cargo, aeroplane baggage and products in shops. It’s used to microchip pets. Many of us carry it around with us all day in our wallets: most modem mobile phones are equipped with RFID, as are contactless cards, many metropolitan travel cards, and e-passports. It’s not a huge leap from having this technology in our pockets to having it under our skin. “The key point is it should be a choice for each individual cautions Warwick. If a company says we will only give you a job if you have such an implant, it raises ethical issues.”

“It is also worth remembering almost all of us carry a device with us every day that sends far more information about our movements and daily behaviour to companies like Google, Apple and Facebook than a RFID implant ever could. Mobile phones are much more dangerous to our privacy.” says Pawel Rorer, a biomedical engineer at AGH University of Science and Technology in Krakow, Poland. “If hacked, phones can convert into the perfect spy with microphones, cameras and GPS. Compared to them the privacy risks rom RFID are really small. Surveillance concerns about the chip on the hack of hand don’t worry Dave Williams as it can only be activated if placed a few centimetres from a render “Fears of GPS-style tracking are strictly science fiction at this point,” he says. He is also keen to emphasis that the procedure to implant it isn’t as gruesome as some might imagine.

Williams installed his chip himself using plenty of iodine to keep every thing sterile. “There was almost no pain at all,” he says. “Removing the tag will be a little harder, but with a scalpel and pair of tweezers it’s not a huge job.” Hacking and security concerns, however, are less easily hand-waved away-RFID chips can only carry a minuscule I kilobyte or so of data, but one researcher at Reading University’s School of Systems Engineering. Mark Gasson, demonstrated that they are vulnerable to malware.

While regular workplace entry cards can hacked too, the very attribute of an RFTD implant that makes it so convenient -the fact that it can’t be forgotten or left at home is also its biggest drawback. When a subcutaneous gadget goes wrong. the experience can he far more harrowing “Implantable technology cant be easily removed or in this case even switched off.” Gasson says, “I felt like the implant was a part of my body, so there was a real feeling of helplessness when things weren’t right.”

All domestic airlines were ordered to（41）               (immediate) prohibit smoking in the cockpit and to severely punish crew members（42）                violate the ban, a notice issued by the Civil Aviation Administration of China said on Tuesday.

It ordered airlines（43）               (suspend) crew members who smoke in the cockpit including（44）               (that) using e-cigarettes for 12 months for a first offense and 36 months for repeat（45）             (offend).
