It won't compare to what 'climate change' is going to do.[It reminds me of the movie 'At the Beach'. I have to finish watching that. Another potential catastrophe, but still less than ...]

Did you mean "On The Beach" by any chance, or am I thinking of a completely different movie?
I didn't see the ending. I sort of got bored at that point. Any surprises? Overall, I liked it, and as it is on YouTube, I hope to have the opportunity to finish it. Sometimes, one can take only so much doomerism.[I'm rewatching it now. Boredom was not the word to use. Fear, maybe. A rather excellent movie.]

The Really Big EQ is an act of nature and not a thing people can do to STOP it. Even the Most Robust structures can only take so much.
That's as opposed to Climate Change.
People SEEM to have a lot to do with it. 7 BILLION people are an incredible load on the eco system of the planet. TOTAL of all energy consumption of my house on a monthly basis might even approach 1 megawatt hour. (=1000KWh) ALL but a tiny percentage ends up as heat.
Don't get me started on 'The Limits To Growth'.
Too much is never enough

Aha! So, it's all your fault!

Yes, I'm adding natural GAS and of course Electric energy. Water is pumped and processed. Even the fuel you use in your car is highly processed. If I added MY share of food transportation costs to my 'house' total, no telling how much energy I use directly or indirectly.
Modern living is VERY energy intensive. As it turns out, a modest Class 'A' system is a drop in the bucket. At least in use. To manufacture? Something else again.
