Very interesting post. I teach High school science, and regularly bring up the Carrington Event possibility with my students. I dont know a ton about our electrical grid, but I know enough about our Sun for that scenario to freak me out a little. The complete modern collapse of most 1st world nations ways of living for a decent amount of time. I am way more concerned of natural EMP events than human caused ones. Our capacity to generate an EMP should be theoretically minuscule to the amount of energy the Sun could generate for an EMP. But yes. Just think about every daily routine that would be hindered by a lack of working electronics. Pretty crazy.
