Fighting Climate Change with Ice Stupas

As the fall season begins, the author reflects on individuals who think differently and achieve greatness through unconventional approaches, drawing inspiration from Bugcrowd's cybersecurity approach that combines art and science. Sonam Wangchuk, an engineer and educator in Ladakh, India, is a notable example of innovative problem-solving; he created "Ice Stupas" to store water and irrigate crops, leveraging principles of fluid-dynamics and human creativity to address climate change challenges. This ingenious invention not only helped the local community but also earned Wangchuk the Rolex Award for Enterprise in 2016. The author sees parallels between Wangchuk's approach and Bugcrowd's crowdsourced security model, which leverages human intelligence at scale to combat malicious motives by harnessing the creativity of good-faith hackers to uncover vulnerabilities in code.
