Changes in transport (electric vehicles and fleet logistics), energy (solar and wind), buildings (insulation and lighting), materials (biochemical and nano materials), and water consumption (desalination and irrigation) are a few examples of the ways in which investors can allocate capital into assets that are positioned to succeed in this new economic reality.

Water purification and desalination equipment can turn dirty water or sea water into clean drinkable water, but many of the existing water solutions, on top of being rather costly, also require additional inputs, from energy to materials, and other than passive solar stills (which tend to have low yields), there aren't a whole lot of other options, especially if portability and affordability are factored in to the equaWater purification and desalination equipment can turn dirty water or sea water into clean drinkable water, but many of the existing water solutions, on top of being rather costly, also require additional inputs, from energy to materials, and other than passive solar stills (which tend to have low yields), there aren't a whole lot of other options, especially if portability and affordability are factored in to the equawater or sea water into clean drinkable water, but many of the existing water solutions, on top of being rather costly, also require additional inputs, from energy to materials, and other than passive solar stills (which tend to have low yields), there aren't a whole lot of other options, especially if portability and affordability are factored in to the equawater into clean drinkable water, but many of the existing water solutions, on top of being rather costly, also require additional inputs, from energy to materials, and other than passive solar stills (which tend to have low yields), there aren't a whole lot of other options, especially if portability and affordability are factored in to the equawater, but many of the existing water solutions, on top of being rather costly, also require additional inputs, from energy to materials, and other than passive solar stills (which tend to have low yields), there aren't a whole lot of other options, especially if portability and affordability are factored in to the equawater solutions, on top of being rather costly, also require additional inputs, from energy to materials, and other than passive solar stills (which tend to have low yields), there aren't a whole lot of other options, especially if portability and affordability are factored in to the equation.
