technological progress can provide potential solutions – if adopted now – to reduce the risk of

power to control nature for maximum economic development?} and
aspirations towards sustainable prosperity {or Aristotelian happiness from doing the right thing
rather than for maximum material wealth?}. And interconnected issues require
interconnected solutions. {Or
solutions that address the root cause or causes simultaneously}
