Lots of assumptions. Lots of hubris. Lots of traps being left based on assumptions.
Why not just go organic? A low-energy lifestyle has been sustainable for thousands of years. Only in the last 150 years have we increased our energy. I'm not saying to get rid of all electricity and revert to barbarism, but rather, there doesn't need to be electricity and a car in every single home. Communal resources.
Of course, we won't make it as far as self sacrifice. Not in this generation of humans anyways.
