Here again, though, it depends on the tech you depend on. I have AC, for example.....but it's a passive system. It gets hot in the summer and cold in the winter, here..but if the electricity went out and no one could deliver gas...I'd still have AC. I'd still have hot water (and water), and all that jazz. I will always be able to soak in a hot bath in a warm house in the middle of january.
FWIW, I do think that our continued ability to avail ourselves of the current level of comfort (or for others to increase their comfort) is going to depend powerfully on passive systems.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
