Plan A is to take the marginal amount left on the table, and turn off industry....meaning the structure of employment in the country crumbles away in a matter of a month or two.
Plan B? You would probably have certain regions where some natural gas distribution would still exist, and other regions where nothing much flows for a while. In this case....you'd drag out a electrical heater out of the basement and go the 'old' way.
In my situation? I have five electrical heaters sitting in the basement. Some are 1000 watt types....some 2000 watt types.
I'd likely crank up one larger unit and keep the kitchen/dining area mostly heated, with a smaller unit in the bathroom. In my living room.....I have a Dyson heating unit which is fairly effective.
My electrical bill? Oh it'd probably double but for two or three months....this plan would get things to an acceptable point.
I don't think it's the doom and gloom as some like to envision. You make due, and just wait for mid-March when things start to warm up. Course, you could always go buy an all-day bus ticket, and just ride buses for most of the day to stay warm.
