Engineers always had a lot of effects in our lifestyle. I am actually in the stage that I should pick a project for my PhD experiments and so I was looking at available problems. In my search I visited a website about engineering challenges of this century. You can actually go there and vote for the most challenging one. Here is the list of problems:
Make solar energy affordable
Provide energy from fusion
Develop carbon sequestration methods
Manage the nitrogen cycle
Provide access to clean water
Restore and improve urban infrastructure
Advance health informatics
Engineer better medicines
Reverse-engineer the brain
Prevent nuclear terror
Secure cyberspace
Enhance virtual reality
Advance personalized learning
Engineer the tools for scientific discovery
You want to know my vote? That is "Make solar energy affordable".
