5 technologies that will disrupt climate change

Disruption is by now a commonplace occurrence in the technology world.  It means when a new technology or business practice comes around and changes things in a revolutionary, rather than evolutionary way.   For businesses, to be disrupted may mean that they can no longer compete in the same way with new contenders that are using this disruption.  We haven't had any major disruptions in the fight against climate change.
 Yes, we are making great strides, but for the most part our wins have been incremental - solar panels getting a little more efficient every year, wind turbines deployed more widely - those kinds of changes.

What would climate change disruption look like?

In this article, we're exploring five technologies that are on the verge of disruption, that may remake the landscape of energy consumption and provide a radical, revolutionary change in our battle with climate change.  Hold on to your hat, here we go.
