A lot of the issues you describe are directly linked to money. Yes it takes time and investments, but look at situations like the Covid where pretty much every western countries got caught with their pants down when a vaccine needed to be produced, or PPE were short.

I understand that it takes time, efforts and money to get to a point where we will have a renewable grid, but there's always people complaining that it's not the perfect solution, so we should continue on the status quo.

The best time to start was decades ago, the second best time to start is now.

But at this point, this is a political discussion more than a technical one.

We have the means to do it, but not the will.

And yes, our quality of life will definitely be affected, but climate change is already doing that, and the grees that is causing that.
