This beautiful world has over 7.5 billion people in it, but more than 2 billion of them don't have safe, healthy, desirable housing and 1.2 billion are without access to electricity. What if we could change that by 2035? Do you think we could do it? What if we could also save the planet's forests and create a future where people around the world have access to affordable, sufficient and healthy food? Pipe dream or absolutely possible? Well, this is the very real and bold vision of today's guest, Anousheh Ansari, CEO of the XPRIZE Foundation, which is funding projects to help build a better, safer, more sustainable world.
