In this series of articles, we cover some of the ways clean technology can help us protect democracy and human rights.
These are all risks that we need to consider during the cleantech revolution so that we don’t save humanity by losing our humanity or willfully throwing it away.
In this series, I’m going to explain how clean technology keeps monopolies weak, keeps money away from authoritarians, and can even keep freedom of speech and information somewhat alive when it’s in its greatest danger.Utilities are often the first example given when discussion of natural monopolies comes up. Because there just isn’t room in utility easements for multiple sets of utilities, and the cost of doing that would be astronomical anyway, monopolies have emerged.
But electricity isn’t nearly as easy. The poles don’t have room for multiple sets of big electrical wires, and the cost of doing that is prohibitive even when it’s possible. And wireless power transmission from a mountaintop to homes and businesses? Not possible at all.
