Housing for everyone, food for everyone, clean energy (nuclear power, though we would do well to advance the tech a little is immanently practical).

Those are all easy mode stuff that would dramatically improve the world for a lot of people, but we could do more.

Hard mode: Orbital rings.

We would have to develop some tech, but not nearly as much as you might think.
