Better tracking of Iatrogenesis
Iatrogenesis is harm or death resulting from medical treatment.  A 2016 John Hopkins University study found the annual number of latrogenic deaths in the US to be 250,000. Later studies  claimed up to 440,000 deaths: This is staggering when deaths due to respiratory disease were 150,000 per year.Some 90 countries use the World Health Organisation's ICD (International Classification of Diseases) as the basis mortality statistics, which determine medical research funding and public health programs. But, there is a problem.  To date the ICD has not included medical treatment or medical errors.  Changing the ICD may just transform healthcare.

If an average person with money would buy some food and water for poor instead of buying unnecessary stuff, and any rich person would help poor with their money instead of buying large houses and sportcars, how much more good would be done, and life would be better for many!

Geothermal Electricity - Anywhere, Anytime
Geothermal power plants are typically located near easily accessible, and sufficiently hot hydrothermal reservoirs. This limits their potential. But Canadian Eavor Technologies Inc has designed a closed-loop conduction system which uses the Earth's natural heat to warm a benign, constantly circulating fluid. In short, its like a radiator, just 3 - 5 kilometres underground. The cooler water entering the loop pushes the hot water up to the surface, the heat is captured to deliver constant, predictable, emission-free, base-load electricity and then simply goes back into the loop as cooler water. https://www.upstreamonline.com/energy-transition/bp-and-chevron-become-part-owners-of-de
