Should web3 tackle the basics?
The power of web3 should not be mistakened for online activities only. In short, without meeting up the basics its real impact can't be felt. There is a need to look into how this emerging technology will shape the daily lives of individuals. We must admit, we will have to live comfortably and healthy, so what are really the essentials for human survival and well-being? I could remember this was always echoed in the early school days.
You've probably heard of the four essentials; food, water, shelter and clothings, I would add the fifth which is health. The issue of food necessity should not be undermined. Both the rich and poor share this fate, we ALL have to eat. Following up is having access to good water. Shelter and clothing may not be fully prioritized and the issue of good health still remains challenging as only those with financial stability have access to the best.
It can be a funny saying yet it remains very true, the food sector is why scientists cannot reach their assumed unreachable. When humans explore space, limited food supply has been what has drawn them within confined territories. The power of internal energy from food source needs proper checkmating. How web3 would be properly channeled to boost farmers and the agricultural sector is what I would leave for another article yet, I will relate it real well with this five mentioned essentials.

Hunger has caused a lot of damage to humans, it has brought about an increase in mortality. Looking at the numbers, it is deterring, over 9 million die yearly of hunger. Something we could say it's embarrassing when knowing the fact that it is humans that TOP the food chain. Web3 can step in here to curb this imbalance. You may be asking how? decentralization in a general sense, ever heard of decentralized supply chain system. There seems to be a lot of food excesses in most areas that lead to waste. How can this be channeled to promote efficient food flow? In the hands of centralized systems the problem of food inefficiency will continue to skyrocket. blockchain tech working through web3 Network will help optimize food production and distribution and as earlier said, how this tech will sponsor agricultural sector will be expatiated in another article.
Internet of Things (IoT) will play a huge role when it comes to the sector of providing water. You've probably heard of this terminology somewhere, well, it entails networking facilities and devices for a smarter home and environment living. Web3 will incorporate this IoT qualities for efficient and clean water for drinking while in the same time curbs waste of this natural resources. With a trusted decentralized communities aiding in sponsor, there is much hope for efficient supply of water.
How will the sector of proper housing be strengthen through web3? We need a transparent and secured property ownership system which will help foster affordable rentals. How safe is an apartment when trying to opt in. If you've passed through traditional agents, you'll get what I am talkking about. Decentralization renting and housing platforms will help in cutting cost and maximizing quality. Adding to that, I would also say, web3 is a good platform to raise housing funds for the needy. I see a room for easy shelter generation thanks to web3 tech.

We need a sustainable ethical production system. Several clothing indutries have either failed to meet this standard or hike the prices. Sourcing for affordable quality can be a necessary factor that web3 will close gaps. open source shopping will pave way for transparency. Looking at how it could helps to provide clothing for the low or poor class, we have to looks at how it could generate decentralized sponsors. Funds could be generated and properly channeled to decentralized clothing platforms which would help in shipment. The key here will curbing waste too. A lot of this second grade materials needs technology to provide suitable disposal.
The area of healthcare is becoming a top concerns this days. When looking at how malaria keeps increasing the death toil especially in Africa. The stepping in of decentralized technology platforms could help curb this challenges. What are the health sector lacking? Proper equipments and easy accessibility. Web3 platforms could step in to provide aid by capitalizing both on IoT and decentralized funds raising to sponsor underdeveloped countries. More specialist training would be a sensible approach as more experts get trained into this sector.
To conclude, let me add, the impact of web3 will definitely be felt beyond the world of just online activities. I think it should, in shorts, it is one of the better ways to announce the value this industry has for the world at large. Web3 need to tackle global basic challenges and curb inconveniences to scale even in the phase of competition.
What are your views? Is there more to add here? Join in the conversation let's discuss of web3 positive humanity impacts.
