US lifestyle (not sure about Canadian) uses IIRC around twice as much
energy per person than the next (Western European), which still uses much
more than many others. Research about people's happiness consistently comes
to conclusions that spending (wasting?) more energy does not correlate with
increased happiness. 

So what is it that people are after that needs all the additional energy?
