Our esteemed guest shines a light on a global issue that many of us take for granted - the availability of electricity. Joining us from Florence, Italy is Claudio Pedretti, CEO of Green Climate Ventures and President of the Alliance for Rural Electrification.  (You may have seen his Ted Talks).

Many, many people in this world suffer from energy poverty, but fortunately Claudio and his organization are addressing this problem. Listening to his stories helps all of us consider ways to improve the lives of people around the globe.

Betsy and Claudio:

That was a compelling presentation!

What Claudio is involved in goes way beyond electrification. It's a story of human development. It's hard for us to conceive of how primitive and brutal the conditions are for a significant % of the world's population; and how something as rudimentary to us as electricity is a rare resource for hundreds of millions of people.

That electricity then provides for: refrigeration, a more sustainable food supply, improved nutrition, improved sanitation, better healthcare, education, communication, economic development, improved quality of life, social stability, etc.

Today's presentation warrants further follow up, including the range of other energy/power sources that can be harnessed for electrification in addition to the sun, although the abundance of sun and the smaller scale systems that can be deployed to capture the sun for power generation sure makes the sun an ideal option for all of us.

Thank you Betsy and Claudio!
