The BBC has a Section on World Changing Ideas for transforming the future of Planet Earth. Recently I read this article on the escalating energy needs of urban communities and radical ideas to improve the situation.
Amazingly innovative ideas like smart grids and decentralised power generation, described in plain English. Imagine having the wherewithal to generate and control your own energy usage! Like solar heating on your own terrace, some day these high-tech ideas will be reality. I believe it is a peek into the future.
It certainly gave me something to hope and dream about, as I sweltered in the April heat of Bangalore, enduring long hours of power cuts.
