• Question: If there was a global warming and everybody in the world would rely on you what would you do. And also to make it a hard question your invention (the roll up TV and the bendy screens don't exist). Maybe you would use your fabulous cooking skills?

      I’d print as many of my solar panels as I could- we could put them everywhere- literally, all over every desert, and then I’d power lots of ovens and cook food for the people who didn’t have any. What we need to do is get everyone working together to stop global warming and find better solutions for the way we use energy. Luckily, with solar panels, wind farms and hydrogen fuel cells in cars (look them up!) we should be okay! Samsung use our materials for light emitters, and there are OLED screens- we just need to make them good enough to be on plastic!

    I think I would start making batteries out of soil. If you take a cup of swampy mud, another cup of clean water, connect them by a rag soaked in salt water and an electrode in each, you can make a crude battery! I think that more low-tech solutions are ignored sometimes, and I think that there are lots of very cool but gritty technology that isn’t used sometimes. I’m also a pretty good cook, so maybe I would make meat-balls for everybody!
