To be honest, I don't know.
Myself personally I routinely spend months in mountains living in very rough conditions, sometimes literally in a cave, and I can enjoy it. On the other hand, without all the hi-tech equipment made from advanced alloys and synthetics (=much energy) I wouldn't enjoy it and even probably survive.
This is myself. And then there's the rest of the society. So it's complicated.
One thing we definitely need is more and more education.
