Why would a 25% drop in energy use necessarily indicate an energy crisis? Isn't it far more likely that a shift in economic composition changed the energy cons

Isn't it far more likely that a shift in economic composition changed the energy consumption? That shift might be a bad thing, but it's not an energy crisis.
- roenxi 2y agoI don't think you have a real point there. I'd draw a parallel with someone getting hit by a car and; someone shouts out "we need an ambulence this is a medical crisis!" and a helpful bystander pipes up to say the issue here is really more of a mechanical nature, nothing went wrong medically - this is all just a result of poor driving skills and is really a driver education crisis. I mean, ok? Maybe call an ambulance anyway? Or in this case stop with the pressure against building out & using cheap energy.
