Militarily, Russia would be the only one that could realistically put all of those countries in check, but it would probably mean nuclear war and on that front, we all lose anyway you look at it.

Russia exports massive amount of fossil fuels and refined energy.  The notion that they're going to bomb their markets out of existence is ludicrous.

The countries that get their largest share of energy from non-fossil fuels tend to be little ones (Sweden, Denmark, Scotland, etc).  I don't really see Costa Rica fire-bombing the EU.

Very very true

If possible, I feel like I need to start moving to a place that is more self sustained and transportation needs are met without burning fossil fuels.

I envision a small house running on solar & small wind generator. Enough land to plant a small garden. A greenhouse for winter plants. Bicycle where I need to go.

Or move to a place near hydro electric dam, wind & solar and hope for the best.

The problem is going to be getting my extended family near the same place. For one, they may have other ideas about where they want to live.

It may even come down to the idea of "fuck the future. I'm going to ride this wave out right here and enjoy my life."
