Besides, if students were serious about combating global warming, they would have elected Roger G. Waite ’10 president of the Undergraduate Council last year. Waite promised to decrease our carbon footprint by using green technology??specifically, oxen. His platform sounded similar to those “Go Green” tips on the back of party registration forms...
...Saying yes to drugs means institutionalizing a policy that recognizes access to medicines and health-related technologies for all as the primary purpose of development of health-related technology??that implements a system of technology development that ensures patients have access to the final end product they need, such as formulated pills or vaccines. It is systematic in its approach, sufficiently transparent to verify its effectiveness, and based on explicit metrics that measure the success of technology transfer by its impact on access and continued innovation; that removes legal barriers to generic production of Harvard technologies in resource...
...Comeuppance will arrive sooner or later, though. If our targets don’t turn the drones back on us—more than 40 countries are working right now to develop drone technology??the robots themselves may have their way. The Air Force just released its Unmanned Aircraft System Flight Plan, which estimates that autonomous aerial bots will replace all manned aircraft in the country by 2047. And in June, leading figures in the artificial intelligence community convened at the Asilomar Conference Grounds in Monterey Bay to discuss the dangers of technologies like drones for humans. Sitting...

Of course, one of the immediate implications of something like the Kindle is that it is comparatively tree-friendlier than books. You might even be able to consider the Kindle as Green Technology??if you ignore the environmental costs of manufacturing it as well as the quality of life of the underpaid Chinese laborers who assemble it. Perhaps books are old-fashioned, but at least they biodegrade. Can you put Kindles in the compost heap?All its technology and environmental politics...
...state of print media. “The real story is the sinking of this bloody newspaper!” Globe editor Cameron Lynne (Helen Mirren) yells at her reporters in one scene. The paper is failing, and Cameron is caught in the conflict between traditional journalism and new technology??a conflict embodied in Della, a blogger, and Cal, an established field reporter. While it bemoans the current crisis in print media, the movie also hearkens back to a not-so-distant past when investigative journalism had the power to change politics. It is a view that...
