Opportunities

Problems that will be not too hard to solve with AP Technology are:

• removal of carbon dioxide to stop and reverse climate change
• dependence on scarce elements
• population boom
• ending energy scarcity
• resolving energy storage problems
• capture of seaborne plastic waste: great pacific garbage patch
• protection against some natural disasters
• better accommodation for the homeless
• giving back agricultural area to nature
• avoidance of release of toxic chemicals

Problems that will be hard to tackle even with AP Technology:

• cleanup of highly dispersed radioactive contaminations in the ground
• social and financial stability in the time of most rapid change
• dealing with the new dangers of AP technology e.g. waste management
• protection against some natural disasters
• cleanup of old landfills

Further opportunities:

• major improvement of public transport
• better access to space and the deep sea
• richer and more colorful environment
