Who needs world renowned, tranquil winelands when you can have highways, traffic and gated-community sprawl instead?

My Corsi-Rosenthal Modular Mini Box with new filters! This is a great unit for a bedroom. Compact, quiet, uses very little electricity and provides 5-6 ACH.

When it comes to rising electricity demand everyone talks about AI and data centres.
But their contribution to rising electricity demand is only 8% between 2025 and 2030.
The rest is largely electrification of transport, buildings and industry.

Energy efficiency is in need of reinventing itself. We need it now more than ever but we need a version 2.0.
I already made this point 4 years ago in a paper linked in the comments.
