To solve the climate crisis, we need to cut this in half by 2030, and get to zero by 2050. However, there’s a shortage of roboticists tackling climate change, due to a lack of awareness of necessary and urgent applications. Surprisingly, many founders I talked with echoed the shortage of roboticists in climate tech.
