- - - - invest in research and development of technology to help reduce dependency on crude oil (non-renewable) and instead use sustainable aviation fuel which produces much less greenhouse gas emissions (a lot cleaner!)
      - A renewable source of fuel that is made from cooking oil and other wastes
    - - Lake system (natural filtration system), instead of using chemicals to prevent algae blooms (bad for the water and environment), aquatic plants does the exact same job these chemicals do except in a much cleaner and sustainable way. allowing biodiversity to thrive.
      - uses solar energy to light up supertrees
      - applies cutting-edge technologies for energy-efficient solutions such as using a particular type of glass to minimize solar heating in the conservatory and using chilled water pipes to keep the conservatories cool. instead of using air conditioners to cool the place which uses heaps of electricity
    - - Not a problem if one is unsure of how to compost, foreign concept to them, technology makes information extraordinarily accessible to all! - visual learner: videos and tutorials.
    - - alternative material to wood meaning lesser trees would be cut down - innovative technology (besides using coffee waste as compost)
      - part of the CIRCULAR ECONOMY: recovers resources at the end of a coffee bean and ground's life to be constructed into something new and useful. (to put it very simply reuse, reduce and recycle but when we think of reuse its usually made for novelty - used plastic bottles into pen holders - with the advancing technology we are able to make more innovative, creative and useful applications that would also contribute to saving the earth)
- - - - NETS, PayLah, Paynow and more allows individuals to make payments using their mobile phones or contactless cards. very convenient, quicker and easier transactions
      - Whether you need to jump on a bus, buy a snack, or send money to a friend, you can probably do it with one of the methods we’ve outlined below.
      - some individuals find managing day-to-day finances are easier using cashless payments due to online banking facilities. VS as there are lesser interactions with physical money which culminates in bad spending habits and impulse purchases online
      - government initiatives and commitment to tech and innovations have positioned SG as a thriving hub for technological advancements and digital transformation (highly educated workforce and robust infrastructure)
      - risk: phishing scams, identity theft
        identity theft: Social Security Number, bank account number, and credit card information. Some identity thieves even sift through trash bins looking for bank account and credit card statements. --> when i was young i wondered why my mom would rip up paper into pieces before throwing them away, but now i understand that those were credit card statements and she did it to ensure her safety against theft. i realised it was all these small extra steps we had to take in order to protect ourselves from being vulnerable. however, being cautious isn't always sufficient, although my mom does take measures to ensure her safety there was once she was unfortunately fooled into sending her credit card number as the caller was extremely persuasive and even guilt-tripped her into doing it. we must all me aware and careful, sometimes even selfish, to protect ourselves. especially for people like me, who tend to be people-pleasers and put others before myself.
    - - initiatives by the Singapore government such as digital government blueprint (DGB) to push forward a smart and digital nation
      - All ministries in Singapore to implement artificial intelligence (AI) into their projects, make sure digital government services are easy and accessible to use (vital for elderly - design of the applications and websites is crucial - courses in polytechnic to gear future designers up for these tasks)
        
        demand for UI UX web design related jobs - user-friendly, UI/UX design plays a crucial role in developing digital products so that it addresses the user's needs directly - OPENS UP NEW JOBS
  - - - increased productivity, able to produce more quantities while ensuring good quality. they did not replace human workforce with robots/AI instead robots and AI aided them to increase the productivity - job security is always a worry for many
- - - - deliver critical medical aid within the first 72 hours of a crisis like aftermath of a natural disaster, when damaged infrastructure or flooding sometimes makes roads impassable.
      - extinguishing wildfires as they are built to endure high temperatures, dangerous winds and high stress which are beyond the abilities of humans
