How Roboticists Can Tackle Climate Change

Cars That Think

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. I want to build more robots that improve the environment we live in. billion more solar panels.
