"I am forced to know things that keep me awake at night", Italian defence minister says

South Korean President Lee Jae Myung urged the country to accelerate a shift to renewable, saying that the energy issue [Iran war] is "so severe that even I can't sleep at night"

They have already started rationing energy here in Egypt, like many countries, especially in East Asia

Kinda mind boggling that the US has not taken any measures whatsoever

@ekis
I heard from a friend in the travel industry that Sri Lanka has already gone to a four day working week as they can't get enough fuel for everyone to keep commuting
Hotels are getting cancellations months in advance as would be holiday goers fear being unable to get to and from airport never mind see anything while there or have food and heating in the hotels.
Like covid the heads are still deep in the sand and a big shock is coming

@ekis Well, but have you considered the First Law of GOPotics?

A GOPster politician must injure human beings or, at the very least, through inaction ensure that human beings come to harm.

@ekis our economy basically collapses the moment we acknowledge the truth about the energy crisis and we spend trillions just on bullshit to keep the American people in the dark about it. I've known this was coming for a long time, but what's to be done when the official national strategy is to deny the problem exists? They own the news media, not me...
