Unfortunately, society cannot function with even a serious fraction of people living as you do. That is not realistic. Your RV, for instance requires a lot of energy to make, and also to operate.

There is also the finding of Garrett, 2011, that there is a lockstep correlation between money and energy. 9.7 +/- 0.3 mW per dollar. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10584-009-9717-9

This has huge implications for society relative to the, “Let’s just cut energy use” idea. Doing so will through people into poverty. We have seen what the COVID year of forcing the working class into poverty imposed by lockdowns caused. And that was pattycake by comparison.
