Eudaimon ꙮ"Running on Empty: Copper" - The Honest Sorcerer

> How peak copper arrived and went completely unnoticed
Please read this article to see clearly how most people advocating for the so called "energy transition" are usually energy-blind, and also materials-(or resources-)blind. The numbers don't add up. Copper demand is expected to rise as copper discoveries have plummeted, and each new discivery has a lower grade (thus higher energy and materials requirements). What lies ahead is what Nate Hagens calls "The Great Simplification", and the only doubt is whether it will be chaotic or ordered. Seeing geopolitical events, I think it will be the former. Maybe we could have adapted all the economic and production system when we were still in relative abundance, had we heeded the warnings, which were already being announced. But now, in the middle of the crisis... I think we'll just have World War 3, which will serve as an excuse for the fall.
