so it sounds like "bear infinite prosperity / comfort / security costs for dubious environmental benefits" . Have you thought about how to weight the costs vs the benefits? Are you proposing being poorer, hungrier, more miserable, less comfortable in the hot & cold season for "clean energy". so how much are you willing to sacrifice for it?
Nothing and we don't have to and idk what you're talking about. I literally have an all-electric home and it's perfectly comfortable. Heat pump works great on the hottest and coldest days (outside temp has been as low 2F as high as 99F). And security benefits are also very much in favor of renewables. There is no global supply chain for wind and sun in the hands of a cartel. You have been suckered by a lot of industry propaganda.
Why did you mention being uncomfortable in hot and cold season? I still don't know what you're complaining about. If an industrial process needs a lot of heat, you can burn stuff or use a giant heat pump. It makes no difference. Idk why you think everything is going to shrivel up and stop producing as much because it uses a different energy source. Thermodynamics doesn't care where energy comes from.
