Globalization and Environment

If you care about the wider human implications and opportunities offered by technologies, this sub-theme is for you.  

It will inspire you to think responsibly about how technologies have threatened our world (eg nuclear weapons and global warming) and help you to examine the benefits of technologies in delivering effective new solutions to human problems (eg new means of travel and information systems).

“It has been said that arguing against globalization is like arguing against the laws of gravity”: Kofi Annan
