Lack of MRI scanners doesn't shorten life spans significantly, lack of clean water and good nutrition is what's significant.

Clean water and good nutrition come from cheap energy.

The Saudis can go a hell of a lot cheaper for oil.

Unless you're willing to kill people we are going to have a mess to clean up in the future.

Which is ok, because in the future tech will be way more advanced.
