Solving climate change or hunger generally means having been born ultrawealthy and moving into politics to influence proper policy changes.
They don't fit the tinkering spare time project very well.
Eg. The lowest hanging fruit for improving hunger now is to convince Ukraine to capitulate to Russia so that the grain can flow, but that's only something you can do if you're a hunter Biden or the like

Photovoltaik, desalination, automated greenhouses, etc. My point is basically, that I never had the fear of being out of projects, when there are so many problems waiting to be solved. My problem was more, picking the realistic ones. But when your goal is the tinkering, than it likely will not hurt failing a unrealistic project and learning in the process.
