2023: Broadness of both topic and solution coverage has reached the point where Urban Cruise Ship's web site is the best starting point we know of for students, counselors, and school administrators to use to select majors, curricula, and research topics in environmental fields.

2022-Present: Produced eleven exemplary handouts, which employ data presented graphically, and use no opinionated messaging in text form apart from labels and titles.

2022: Produced the first trajectory-styled projection of progress toward producing energy without the use of fossil fuels (see Electricity Production Forecast and Energy Production Forecast handouts). This lessens the distractive clutter and lack of achievability rationale (and accompanying puzzlingly wide variations) associated with forecast (or scenario)-based presentations used extensively previously by numerous other organizations.

2021-Present: As of March 14, 2024, 73 of our over-200 solutions contain at-least-mostly-full sets of estimates.  The combined totals are $6.2 trillion U.S. dollars per year in costs, $10.1 trillion U.S. dollars per year in benefits, 30.85 billion tons of carbon dioxide-equivalents per year of greenhouse gas reduction, and 79 million square kilometers of habitat preserved.

2020-Present: Invented and developed Comparative Progress Studies - a subfield of Progress Studies, as a tool for improving and verifying accuracy of cost-benefit metrics for solutions. This can also improve policymakers' funding prioritization. By the end of 2020, the number of historic human endeavors presented stood at 35. By the end of 2021, that number had grown to 78, and was broken down into 8 categories in addition to being presented all together.

2018-Present: Over 750 graphic exhibits have been constructed, with data and analysis sufficient to identify over 200 problem-solution sets, for which Urban Cruise Ship believes it can calculate cost, benefit; and environmental impact estimates sufficient to properly prioritize them. Calculations for these remain under development. By presenting this data, along with analysis and tentative problem-solution sets, others can use this to independently develop high-quality solutions easier if they wish, in competition with Urban Cruise Ship's own solution development. Such competition should improve collective quality.
