When Beyoncé [dropped two songs from her upcoming album of country tunes](, Renaissance: Act II, she may not have expected to make history, but that's exactly what happened. Her first single from the album, "Texas Hold 'Em," shot to[the No.1 spot]( on the Billboard country music charts, making her the first Black female artist to hit that top spot. The catchy tune also [topped the Billboard Hot 100](the last week in February 2024, a week after it debuted at No. 2.

We live in a country that claims to be the greatest in the world, but where an emergency trip to the hospital can easily bankrupt someone. Kevin Bozeat had that fact in mind when he fell ill while living in Taiwan and needed to go to the hospital. He didn't have insurance and he had no idea how much it was going to cost him.

Technology is the single greatest contributor to climate change but it may also soon be used to offset the damage we've done to our planet since the Industrial Age began. In September 2018, a project in Myanmar used drones to fire "seed missiles" into remote areas of the country where trees were not growing. Less than a year later, thousands of those seed missiles have sprouted into 20-inch mangrove saplings that could literally be a case study in how technology can be used to innovate our way out of the climate change crisis.
