[forbes.com] The Buzz 2: Technologies shaping the sustainability agenda: Public electric transport. Electric trucks. Cheap energy storage. Plastic recycling. LED light efficiency. Accessible solar power. Carbon capture and storage. Hydrogen in the energy transition. [mckinsey.com] The Buzz 3: “I came up with idea of a solar airplane flying around the world with no fuel – that would be a beautiful message in terms of technology, the energy of the future and the environment.” [Bertrand Piccard FRSGS, Swiss explorer, psychiatrist, environmentalist] The Buzz 4: “Unfortunately, in the environment, I don’t see as much willingness to invest heavily in R&D as I do in consumer technology. And that’s a pity.” [Ramez Naam, American technologist, sci-fiction author: Nexus Trilogy] The Big Question: Can we achieve Sustainability through data-driven processes, technology, collective mindset, government mandates, individual action or a combination of the above?
