As our carbon footprint continues to climb humanity has adjusted to try and find other ways of harnessing energy. The power of solar energy is by far the most sought after.

Ever heard of the Kardashev Scale?  It details our ability to grow as a civilization and harness the natural elements on Earth and our galaxy using a Type scale that ranges from 0-5

From Wikipedia ”

A Type I civilization extracts its energy, information, and raw-materials from fusion power, hydrogen, and other “high-density” renewable-resources; is capable of interplanetary spaceflight, interplanetary communication, megascale engineering, and colonization, medical and technological singularity, planetary engineering, world government, trade and defense, and stellar system-scale influence; but are still vulnerable to extinction.

We’re a couple thousand years from being able to harness the elements in the galaxy but to scale up to a Type 1 civilization Michio predicts to take about 100-200 years.
