According to this February 11th story over at the Epoch Times (saved here at the Wayback Machine), electricity is among the most essential sources of America’s prosperity and productivity over many decades, though as they also report, it’s also our greatest vulnerability.
Reporting that the US has become so utterly dependent upon an uninterrupted supply of affordable electricity that a sudden and long time stop to it would instantly become an existential crisis for 100’s of millions of Americans, especially those who’ve never taken the time to consider what would happen to them should the grid go down, as that story warned, according to former CIA director James Woolsey, if America’s electric grid were to go down for an extended period, such as one year, “there are essentially two estimates on how many people would die from hunger, from starvation, from lack of water, and from social disruption

“One estimate is that within a year or so, two-thirds of the United States population would die,” Mr. Woolsey said. “The other estimate is that within a year or so, 90 percent of the U.S. population would die.”
And while that news is certainly ‘old news‘ to ANP readers as we’ve been warning about the estimates of 90% of Americans being dead following a grid down scenario for years and years now, attempting to warn some friends and family members about that possibility who instead called it ‘just another conspiracy theory,’ maybe they’ll pay attention now that the Washington Post has put out a new story as a dire warning to their own readers titled “Amid explosive demand, America is running out of power.”
Warning in their opening that AI and the boom in clean-tech manufacturing are pushing America’s power grid to the brink, and the utilities companies are unable to keep up, . that story bluntly reports that “Vast swaths of the United States are at risk of running short of power as electricity-hungry data centers and clean-technology factories proliferate around the country, leaving utilities and regulators grasping for credible plans to expand the nation’s creaking power grid.”
And with that story finally catching up with the independent media where we’ve been warning we’ve been heading towards a disaster for many years now, with this February 6th ANP story warning decisions made by our politicians at the very highest levels to ‘go green‘ are leading to a catastrophe that we may never be able to get out of, that Washington Post story never mentioned how the grid going down and ‘America running out of power’ would imperil the ‘average Jane and Joe’ living across America, but they were sure to point out how important it was for America to meet state and federal climate goals.
Yet with it being that ‘push’ for America to meet state and federal climate goals a huge part of WHY out nation’s power grid is in such bad shape right now, with this new Fox News story also mentioning ‘clean tech’ and the ‘A.I. boom’ as being largely responsible, as Jason Shaw, the chairman of the Georgia Public Service Commission warned of the challenges dead ahead of us, “When you look at the numbers, it is staggering, it makes you scratch your head and wonder how we ended up in this situation. How were the projections that far off? This has created a challenge like we have never seen before.”
