#2>HELP SOLVE WORLD HUNGER
I read the plan from the UN on how to solve world hunger and it basically was 'keep giving us billions a year so we can buy more food' which is idiotic and in violation of the 'give a man a fish, teach a man to fish'
What I have been considering, I wish I could entrepreneur and try this.
Could there be a fully automated system in which produces food? Sure I've literally been to greenhouses that didn't need humans in a day2day fashion anyway. But this greenhouse was not sustainable in the 50+ year range.
What I've been wanting to do is build a fully automated aquaponics system. Very low input requirements other than the costly LED lighting and energy. Theoretically could produce tons of food at tremendously low cost.

Give a man a fish, he'll eat for a day.
Give a man an industrial-grade hydroponic fish farm, he will eat in perpetuity until the machine fails and someone has to pay an engineer to go fix the fish machine on a Saturday morning.

With my luck I'm the engineer.

#6But those things won't be profitable for Musk or give him access to unbridled attention.
Hell, if he really wanted to save the world, he could buy twitter and then just turn it off. Problem solved!

If he can’t improve it, he might just.

Maybe give a hydrolysis plant for an ammonia generator, feeding an ammonium nitrate cooling pack factory. Extending the workable time catching fish, while producing sterile fertilizer for deep water.

Or, for $43B, he could pay $10,000 for the top 4.3m accounts to switch to a different service.
