You don't seem to get the concept of wanting to increase comfort efficiently.
I'm as willing as anyone to endure harsh conditions, but there simply is no need when for less than 8 cents, you can be comfortable, and the windows can be defrosted/defogged.
My interest in efficiency is an end in itself, and I'm under no pretense that I've somehow saved the planet because I drive a Prius, work from home, or recycle. The wellbeing of humanity is my main concern. The environment, our environment, is an enormously big part of human well-being, so that is my interest in managing it appropriately. Whether polar bears will share the environment with us in the future, I don't particularly care.
