probletunity

An opportunity that arises when a problem has to be solved. The opportunity may give rise to benefits that are unrelated to the problem being solved.

The rising cost of gasoline creates a market for alternative energy sources. This creates an probletunity for developing and marketing electrically powered hybrid vehicles to replace cars totally reliant on petrol and diesel. This will save on co2 emissions, which contribute to the greenhouse effect, and thus may reduce global warming.

The phrase is normally misquoted as "Houston, we have a problem" as in the movie Apollo 13: "Houston, we have a problem".
