Infrastructure is care at scale, as Deb Cachra would say: http://debcha.org

Her talk on "How infrastructure works" was eye-opening https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oK6BRwwhgbo

I'm having a hard time translating her points regarding how infrastructure serves and cares for the basic human physical needs (e.g water, clean air etc) and how it can serve social needs like child care or elder care.

That strikes me as a complete non-sequitur. I have no idea what it might mean.
