“What does it mean when, in the name of reducing carbon emissions, we reduce our civilizational energy sources and thereby reduce our resilience? Who has thought this through?”

Actually this question is not really new per se. The thought has occurred to me so I assume to a great many others also.

I have no doubt that the folks who advocate returning to the 18th century have also thought deeply on the matter…and have concluded that the candle is worth the price.

The other day it occurred to me that this may be one of the principle reasons the Left can so easily make league with the Jihadist movement.

They both want to return to the past for reasons of their own, it is only how far back that is open to question.
