@AnaLuizaNicolae (@CambridgeHPS) is concerned that injection of CO2 in rock strata multiplies the unknowns of earthquake risk. Is removing CO2 through underground carbon sequestration worth the seismic risk? #CCS #CarbonSeques #TechSavesWorld @CRASSHlive
Jennifer (@Cambridge_Eng ) says the laws of physics & time mean that tech can't save the world! We must reach net-zero emissions within 30 years. #Energy must come from somewhere. Do we have enough non-emitting electricity, carbon storage and biomass? #TechSavesWorld @CRASSHlive
Another view from outside STEM @SpiersRobbie (@MMLL_Cambridge) argues that #technology can’t save the planet. Real change only comes from our attitudes to ourselves & the world. What use are better machines if we have not learnt how to use them wisely? #TechSavesWorld @CRASSHlive
Next we have Tomi from @Cambridge_Eng who is asking us to be in the present and not hope that future tech can undo our mistakes. Do you agree with Tomi that pinning our hopes on tech somehow absolves us of having to act NOW? #TechSavesWorld @CRASSHlive
From a #socio-technical perspective, @AishaSobey (@arch_cambridge) is arguing that tech can only save the world if we save ourselves first! What great ideas haven't gone anywhere because they didn’t make money? #designthinking #calmtech #planetfirst #TechSavesWorld @CRASSHlive
In a time of rapid tech growth & digital revolution, technology is creating solutions & socio-economic problems. We have a knowledge & wealth gap between populations. @Aishvenkatr (ChemEng) asks how do we develop tech that ameliorates this inequality? #TechSavesWorld @CRASSHlive
First up is Meg from @DeptofPhysics: Is #Electrification a silver bullet to the climate crisis? Finite sources of Lithium and Cobalt continue to be extracted from regions of conflict. How do we reduce the social & enviro impacts of these technologies? #TechSavesWorld @CRASSHlive
Are we being deliberately provocative with this afternoon’s interdisciplinary debate “Technology can save the world”? YES WE ARE! Tweet using #TechSavesWorld to argue for and against
@CRASSHlive @DeptofPhysics @ChemCambridge @cu_mat @Cambridge_Eng @cebcambridge
'Technology can save the world – an interdisciplinary debate'
How can socially oriented, non-technical, as well as technical approaches work together to address the challenges we face?
Join us on Thursday 24 Nov for this joint event with @CRASSHlive
