    So what is the downside of this? It seems like a net-positive. Decreased demand for fossil fuels is great! It’s a shame it took a bunch of death and destruction, but now that it has happened, the silver-lining is quite shiny.

        If only there were a way to generate near unlimited amounts of energy without fossil fuels.

        This is why China is pursuing electrification. If transportation is battery powered, oil decouples from GDP.

        They seem to be the only country on Earth that is actually taking this seriously. Everyone else seems to think oil is forever.

        lower GDP

        What America may need to grok is that GDP is not the same as happiness, and in a choice between the two GDP seems to be irrelevant.
