Healthcare

This report examines the potential impact and challenges of cancer vaccines, proposing a debate about the best and most equitable way to put an end to cancer. It includes illustrations by Daniel Hertzberg, and discusses the need for studies with clearly defined plans to treat a defined number of patients, as well as the potential of mobile production facilities for mRNA.

AI & Robotics

We are now living through the early stages of a similarly rapid revolution in robotics and artificial intelligence — and the effect on society could be just as enormous.

Sustainability

Today’s throwaway clothing or “fast fashion” has negative environmental impacts at every stage of its life cycle. Current systems are not sustainable. We need to change what our clothes are made from, where and how they are produced, and how we dispose of them.

Sustainability

Progress made to reduce hunger in recent decades is now going into reverse. Only a concerted effort on many fronts will restore productivity to degraded soil and produce crops that can survive in the hot, dry conditions that are becoming common.
