Kardashev Scale was proposed by Nikolai Kardashev to measure a civilization through energy control. According to him, there is 3 types of civilization scale to be measured.
The type 1 civilization is able to used all the energy from its own planet. This simply means there will be no natural disasters occur anymore as this civilization can control all types of energies on this planet.
Type 2 civilization is able to utilized not only own planet's energy and also surrounded planet. This will gives them an advantage that no any other comet, meteoroid can destroy this type 2 civilization.
Type 3 civilization is much advance than type 2 simply can used up or control the energy in the galaxy as they are belonging.
How this kardashev scale is important for us?
Besides the measurement for our civilization (obviously human not even reach the type 1 civilization), what about we look at a microcosmic perspective?
In my humble opinion, type 1 civilization is more about the further development of awareness. If a civilization not even realize or aware the dangers are approaching, how can the civilization survive and further develop to type 2 civilization? Hence, an awareness is the basis of becoming to type 1 civilization.
If this measurement put on our self, how many of us have an excellent awareness? If we can aware on our emotions, trigger points, is it the same metaphor of able to controlling the energy like the type 1 civilization?
When we able to achieved type 1 civilization (metaphorically), how we can move to type 2?
For me, the type 2 civilization is our power of influence. Let's recap the characteristic of type 2 civilization, it can be used not only own and also the surrounded planet's energy. Hence, let me ask you a question, which powerful person who has not able to influence people surrounded him or her?
When comes to type 2, we can better control our emotions and utilized properly, at the same time, we know our limitations and ask for help, with influence. Therefore powerful person they display their charm charismatic personality to attract and let's people willing to offer help to them.
When comes to type 3, it is merely an extension of influence. This time not only surrounded and also globally!
This type of people can easily influence globally may be due to their wealth, contributions, ideas, inspirations, power and etc. Some examples like Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Gandhi, Donald Trump.
However we must not forget, reached to type 3 doesn't mean it always turn out something good! It also can be something disaster happened as they can simply wipe out a civilization by using their energy in their planet. Therefore we must beware of those people who can influence globally.
Kardarshev scale not only a measurement for civilization but also a guideline for self improvement!
