Jeremiah 17:5 Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusts in man, and makes flesh his arm, and whose heart departs from the Lord. 6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.
There are unforeseen problems associated with the near complete dependence on the electric grid, as is laid out in the green new deal, and such challenges would be manifested only after the switch over has been made.
With oil-based sources of energy, you would have more pollution, but the chances of a catastrophic shut down will not be not as high as when there is total dependence on the electric grid. If, for some reason we were to run into a major problem with our electric grid, the consequences could then be absolutely devastating and catastrophic.
Without back-up generators, and batteries, it could result in shuttering of banking systems, computers will lack the power to operate, satellites would not be able to communicate information efficiently, and those vital services we have come to depend on can suddenly be upended, and the “everything electric” mindset could abruptly be rendered null and void.
Jeremiah 17:7 Blessed is the man that trusts in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is. 8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreads out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
