Environment problems are not technological problems, their are driven by society. The way we consume, how we reproduce, the responsibilities we are willing to take, how we design our days, what define success, what are our purpose, our values and how we communicate, share, and educate.

Technology is only the thing we use to compensate our failure in the other areas.

But it's a never ending race.

If we don't solve the root of the problem, technology will also bring more power to act badly, which we will need to compensate with better tech, etc.
