Salutations Citizens

I'll keep this one nice and quick to make sure no brains are fried into unduly useless pulp.

So far, for the sustainable technology topic, you're heard about different kinds of energy technologies. Although this is a big issue, there are also other avenues you may want to explore. Climate change, for one, is increasingly a hot topic on the world stage. Many of the solutions to climate change deal with improving technologies, either to release less carbon into the atmosphere or to capture carbon once it is already in the atmosphere.

I probably don't need to do climate change related research for you guys. Just look at Google news and that should keep you busy for a while. But in the spirit of pretending that I actually matter, here is a random link:

Climate change is a big player now, but if you look around there are other problems that either were a big deal at some point in time, such as ozone depletion, problems with nuclear energy/products, or food shortages due to population growth, and problems that are shaping up to eventually be big players such as water shortages and decreases in biodiversity. Ignoring the fact that I am starting to sound like the science student I really am, there is a lot of technology that can be put to good use, so just keep looking around.

Cheers.
