The idea about creating new technology that emcompasses every single one of us around the globe should be the primarily goal of engineers. Although engineers have come a long way from improving accessibility to the invention of computers and life-sciences, not all of these fruits of technology serve the whole world heaven on the plate. For instance, inventing a technology that enable space shuttles to fly to Mars and reducing cybercrimes don't really benefit the poor nations much since they are still struggling hard to meet their basic needs. This is especially true in a world that is still divided along the haves and haves-not. An American could be seen getting more obese each day whereas an African villager fighting hard to find clean potable water and food. Challenges like ensuring equitable distribution of clean water, diseases containment and tackling global warming should be the utmost priorities that engineers resolve first before shifting to others that affect only a certain group of people. With regards to the water issue, it is not because of insufficient water but more about water wastage in everyday living and uneven distribution to the whole world. Countries like Canada and China certainly have more water supplies than Africa. Although engineers have come out with ideas like water desalination plant and building of dam to increase clean water, these are costly and certainly not a viable choice for poor nations. They need to venture into something that can benefit the world as a whole. Similarly, ways to cure aids and cross-species diseases should be their focus too. In conclusion, modern engineers need to prioritise the challenges that the world is facing and work on those which affect everyone.
