Essentially, your standard of living is proportional to the amount of energy you use. Fossil fuels provide cheap energy. Most other forms of energy are more expensive, especially in the case where you need to have a reliable power supply 24x7. Moving away from fossil fuels can be expected to decrease your standard of living. Not too many people want to talk about that.

In short, no solutions ever offered ... just doom and gloom.
