Alarmist aren't we.

Lower economic growth, better try your bets elsewhere because unless you can suddenly remove a third of the population from the planet we ain't going anywhere but up.

Energy production will simply shift to what is the most affordable and don't expect it to ever become less than today. If anything our energy expenditures will continue to climb. The only change will be how we create it. When cheaper energy becomes available expect usage to dramatically spike, if anything our biggest threat won't be carbon, it will be heat; waste heat.
