We can adapt to climate change. We can create new (clean!) energy sources.
Solar is getting more efficient every year. There are new storage solutions appearing every year.
As TFA says, despair is not the answer. We can (and will) overcome all these problems.
Don't make the mistake of confusing energy use with quality of life.
People like to make such alarmist statement around standard of living but we should instead ask ourselves what makes for quality of life.
A good example is planned obsolescence in technology: it greatly increases energy usage and pollution without making consumers happier (on the contrary they hate it)
