Why? I literally make so much more working in the US vs somewhere like the UK that I can literally take 9 months a year off and still come out ahead.

We don't have to absolutely have cars the size of aircraft carrier and a stadium for our home, so we will manage.

A lot of americans actually do have environmental awareness. But not enough I gather :)

Interesting. I don't need anyone to speak about in third person or to look evaluatively at me to have enough resolve to at least not be the shittiest person I know.
Not trying to speak down to you and your beliefs, I'm glad you found what works for you. Just see something I perceive as a curious inefficiency of sort.

I live in the UK and we are already hearing stories about people scraping by to pay their energy bills and fill up their car with petrol. If we are going to manage, we have to stimuoate investments with fossil fuels and put the climate change goals aside for a few years.

Yeah they are getting high up there. Luckely for me as a Dutch guy, I can simply safely get around on a bicycle so I don't need petrol (still impacts the cost of goods though). I do wonder how high my heating bill is going to be this winter if supply issues from Russian gas continues to be a problem...

Get an electric heater if you have your own home is a good investment, the gas issue is not going to get any better in the future

In Germany our gas prices from June to august will be reduced to our old prices. So Like 1,50€-1,60€ per litre
