Innovation in the Food Industries: Impacts of the Digital Revolution. This report by the National Academy of Technologies of France notes that the food industry is an important link in the rapidly evolving global food system and emphasizes the need to exploit multiple digital data sets to underpin solutions to the complex problems.

Significant Gas Fired Generation Required During Transition to Zero Carbon. The Irish Government has adopted a challenging target of having 70% of the country’s electricity produced from renewable sources (primarily wind and solar) by 2030. In its newly published report, ‘The Challenge of High Levels of Renewable Electricity in Ireland’s Electricity System’ the Irish Academy of Engineering (IAE) seeks to identify the risks in the transition to renewable electricity and recommend prudent actions by policy makers.

Moral Imagination for Social Justice in Engineering. Despite over fifty years of calls to diversify engineering, progress has been far too slow. We need to rethink engineering ethics and practice to benefit a broader range of publics, incorporating not just intellectual reasoning but also emotional intelligence and embodied enactments of justice. The US National Academy of Engineering is hosting a webinar on 12 March 2021 during which root causes affecting progress and pathways for advancement will be discussed. More information is available here.

Driving the Human. Germany’s National Academy of Science and Engineering (acatech) has partnered with the Arts to launch a unique transdisciplinary initiative to discover new ways to combine social and technological innovations in order to rethink visions of the future. The global project aims to create spaces investigating critical questions from a multitude of perspectives around the world. The international community is invited to support effort through a Global Open Call for participation. Additional information, including an interview with acatech’s project lead can be found here.
