It's the time for new year's resolutions and fresh resolve to achieve those goals that remained elusive at the end of last year. Achieving a challenging objective often requires taking a new perspective. Since my new year's resolution is to blog more, I wanted to start out the year with a blog about 12 key areas where we've seen first-hand, working with organizations around the globe, the impact that taking a new perspective can have. A well-known saying, probably misattributed to Einstein, says that "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results." If there's an objective you had trouble achieving last year, maybe this year you need to come at it from a new perspective.

Clark’s book, *2001: A Space Odyssey*, a mysterious black monolith appears on Earth millions of years before modern humans. It’s the classic “black box.” We don’t know who made it, what’s in it, or how it works, but it’s miraculous and powerful and somehow results in jumpstarting the entire evolution of humankind.

Only a few years ago, I would be met with a blank stare when I told someone I planned on going to grad school for machine learning. Today, there is no need for my “it's like computer science, linear algebra, and statistics had a combined love child” analogy as most people instantly respond with “Oh, like AI!” [Read More »](https://exaptive.com/blog/ethical-data-standards-to-drive-society-forward) [![](https://exaptive.com/hubfs/stacks.jpg)](https://exaptive.com/blog/mapping-science-networks-and-projects-focused-on-limiting-the-rise-in-global-temperatures) ## [Mapping Science Networks and Projects to Limit the Rise in Global Temperatures](https://exaptive.com/blog/mapping-science-networks-and-projects-focused-on-limiting-the-rise-in-global-temperatures) Posted by [Jill Macchiaverna](https://exaptive.com/blog/author/jill-macchiaverna) on Dec 7, 2018 9:08:36 AM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) When the United Nations released a report earlier this year that a catastrophic two-degree Celsius (3.6-degree Fahrenheit) rise in global average temperatures is [expected to occur in the next decade](http://www.ipcc.ch/report/sr15/), there was a media firestorm about the dire predictions.
