2022 Theme: Green Economies
There's an ongoing debate about whether the pursuit of economic growth is at odds with sustainability. Due to the profit-driven nature of certain industries, the day-to-day goods and services are manufactured by unsustainable practices. Economic growth ultimately requires energy, but the fossil fuels reserves are finite and climate change is making extreme weather events the new norm. Meanwhile, the new era of blockchain technology demands even more energy inputs, posing further strain on the environment. In this year's hackathon, we encourage everyone to reflect on the meaning of sustainable development and seek to propose ways to avoid compromises between economic growth and the environment.
