1.1. Visualizing... on moving around - Sense users journey and mode of travel, report to monetary, environmental cost to the user - present savings opportunities http://www.openplanetideas.com/how-can-sony-technology-be-used-to-address-environmental-challenges/concepting/visualizing-how-much-we-spent-and-we-can-save-on-moving-around/
1.2. intelligent container for keeping track of pollution - incentivise people to return packaging - rfid tech enables more advanced deposit system (e.g. you get eur5 back when you return the cardboard packaging of your computer) - e.g. through a deposit system farmers have an economic incentive to not leave empty fertiliser bags in a field http://www.openplanetideas.com/how-can-sony-technology-be-used-to-address-environmental-challenges/concepting/intelligent-container-for-keeping-track-of-agricultural-pollution/
2. pollution control
2.1. motorway shroud - sequester emmisions from motorway traffic - construct capture system around motorway - dimishing capture potential as more vehicles become electric ? - can be selectively applied in high traffic density areas ? - maybe cars can sequester their own emissions and empty the sequestration reservoir at refill time ? http://www.openplanetideas.com/how-can-sony-technology-be-used-to-address-environmental-challenges/concepting/a-motorway-shroud/
3. a way to use what is currently wasted
3.1. Time efficient farming innovation - capture waste heat energy from farm activity - the idea looks practical and easy to implement http://www.openplanetideas.com/how-can-sony-technology-be-used-to-address-environmental-challenges/concepting/time-efficient-farming-innovation-generating-free-heat-/
4. Policy
4.1. Intercity Mass Transportation Standard - use international organisations to promote public transport - this already exists to an extent, e.g. ireland upgraded it's infrastructure to eu standards - there is potential leverage; govts are willing to take major steps to host olympics, world cup http://www.openplanetideas.com/how-can-sony-technology-be-used-to-address-environmental-challenges/concepting/intercity-mass-transportation-standard/
5. make something people need more available
5.1. Let the water shine clean Use renewable energy to enable UV water disinfection in areas with poor water/power infrastructure http://www.openplanetideas.com/how-can-sony-technology-be-used-to-address-environmental-challenges/concepting/let-the-water-shine-clean/
6. Connecting resources with willing implementors
6.1. Towards the tree solution - connect people who want to offset their carbon footprint, with people who need help to improve their environment - e.g. an organisation with carbon deficit with local group in madagascar http://www.openplanetideas.com/how-can-sony-technology-be-used-to-address-environmental-challenges/concepting/towards-the-tree-solution/
7. protect environment
7.1. Dye sensitized solar cell - protect ice caps by capturing solar energy before it hits the ice - such projects exist in africa, e.g. solar energy plants in the sahara - covering an ice cap with tech doesnt really protect the habitat - low solar energy density in polar regions mean not best place to generate energy - but maybe worth consideration. http://www.openplanetideas.com/how-can-sony-technology-be-used-to-address-environmental-challenges/concepting/dye-sensitized-solar-cell-operated-reflection-to-protect-icecaps/
