Description:

While the 20th century saw massive successes in terms of industrialization, much of the world’s population was excluded from the spoils of these endeavors, and often directly exploited in their achievement. Simultaneously, the environmental impact of these practices has done irreparable harm to our world. Now nearly a quarter through the 21st century, we must ensure that the same mistakes are not repeated, and that we use recent technological developments such as artificial intelligence to more evenly distribute earnings and resources while also ensuring that our environment is protected.
