Bill Gates and Sewer

5/24/2020

 
Description of this project on Bill & Melinda Foundation. I highly recommend Inside Bill's Minds, a documentary on Netflix. 

All the works that this foundation and Mr. Gates' vision of how technological innovation could solve those world-wide but nobody-tried-to-solve problems are very inspirational to me. The intensity that the Gates put on those problems, die-hard relentlessness, and their perseverance through so many difficulties will always remain to be an inspiration to me. I remember that Elon Musk also said something like when something is right to do, you do it regardless of fear. 

One way that a technology leader could help to reshape the world is: (a super short version)
  1. Find a problem that has infected a great amount of people and yet not gained much public attention. Technological innovations are lacking in the field and could have the potential to solve the problem.
  2. Gather talented people who have the passion and ability to work out this problem.
  3. Do engineering work (Bill & Melinda Foundation did this partially by holding competitions worldwide)
     *** Operational work is certainly important in such a giant project. It is not included in the above step is because I            realize that I still have a lot to learn on the field. Will update after progress is made
