Organisms to combat climate change

In the future, the issues with global warming having a massive impact new ways will be used to tackle the build-up of methane and Carbon dioxide by using microorganisms to process the gas from the upper atmosphere to reduce these types of gasses.

Myopia Epidemic Myopia is the most common ocular disorder worldwide, it is the leading cause of visual impairment in children, and its incidence is increasing rapidly. 1,2  In 2010, an estimated 1.9 billion people (27% of the world’s population) were myopic, and 70 million of them (2.8%) had high myopia. These numbers are projected to rise to 52% and 10%, respectively, by 2050 (Figure). 1 Figure.

Radical decarbonization tools - TODAY

  Radical decarbonization tools Deep tech climate startups can radically decarbonize our industries by leveraging two superpowers: 1) science and 2) entrepreneurship. While science provides impactful breakthroughs, entrepreneurship enables their fast implementation for tackling the climate crisis. Deep tech climate startups have already developed ways to grow steaks without an animal ( Mosa Meat ,   Aleph Farms ), build electric airplanes ( Heart Aerospace ), invent multi-day energy storage ( Antora Energy ,   Form Energy ), and develop plastic-eating enzymes ( Epoch BioDesign ,   Beworm ). There are two areas where I believe deep tech startups can make an outsized climate impact: #1. Decarbonizing hard-to-abate manufacturing sectors Concrete, steel, and other manufacturing industries (e.g., plastics and chemicals) form the backbone of our modern society. These industries make up   20% of global greenhouse gas emissions   and, unfortunately, are all   ...

Competition for talent

  Competition for talent As demand grows for new and emergent  skills , including UX design, cybersecurity, and data science, workers around the world — and labor markets — are struggling to keep up.  According to a recent  survey  conducted by the World Economic Forum, nearly eight in 10 global CEOs say they’re concerned about the availability of people with the right skills. So far, organizations have responded by engaging in a war for talent — that is, buying or stealing it, rather than growing it from within. As they compete to fill roles, many have been willing to spend billions on recruiting (or poaching), while reluctant to invest in training their existing workers or unskilled ones, perhaps out of fear their competitors will hire those newly attractive employees away.  Demand for skills as people retire early and pay levels depressed.
