Lunch time discussion with Bilal and Viraj

Trends of urbanization coupled with de-popularization of rural areas over the past few decades might experience a reverse over the course of the next few decades. Driving trends

- Improvements in solar power's efficiency and battery capacity - folks will be able to set up off the grid infrastructure that is still very hi-tech
- Mega online shopping portals backed by well built up logistic infrastructure like Amazon and Alibaba leveling access to goods and services even in remote areas
- Disillusion of benefits due to overcrowding in megapolis, coupled by desire for free and clean air and space
- Desire for non-GMO produces driving growth of low cost agricultural land in priorly rural under-developed areas.
