The petrodollar system was set up in a way that would cause our banking system to collapse if we ever transition away from oil. But as more countries abandon the dollar as a reserve currency, and other looming economic cataclysms unfold, our banking system is going to collapse either way. Meaning that now is the perfect opportunity to modernize our energy system. But not with renewables. Because renewables (i.e. wind) take more carbon emissions to produce then they ultimately save, and they only work intermittently - making them unsuitable replacements for fossil fuels. Instead we must prioritize the development of decentralized Energy3 technologies. These revolutionary new technologies produce unlimited clean energy onsite at the end-point of use. Meaning devices only need to be purchased once, and eliminate ongoing electric bills. Once these are available, government won't have to force anybody to go green - people will want to on their own.
