Energy Suicide: Unplugging America » Publications » Family Security Matters: "What was that most homeowners and apartment dwellers most feared in the recent record-breaking blizzard that hit the northeast?
The answer is losing electricity and that is why the news of the event was always filled with reports of what towns had lost electricity due to downed tree limbs. This was followed by news of how quickly the utilities were making repairs.
Simply stated, when you lose electricity, you lose light and warmth, and you are instantly back to the dark ages before magical power flowed into your home through outlets throughout your house or apartment. No power leaves people searching for flashlights or, if they have planned for it, firing up a generator.
That is why energy is so critical, not just to our everyday lives, but to the future of the nation. It is, in many respects, life itself."
