t century, hundreds of millions - and eventually billions - of human beings will transform their buildings into power plants to harvest renewable energies on site, store those energies in the form of hydrogen and share electricity, peer-to-peer, across local, regional, national and continental inter-grids that act much like the Internet.

We were making the first step out of the age of chemistry and physics, and into the age of biology.

This shift, from hierarchical to lateral power, is going to change the way we live, the way we educate our children, and the way we govern the world.
