Fuel shortage

Post by Dark Knight »

The UK climate change meeting is at the end of October, we have made little progress, the take up of electric cars is poor, we need to do something, ah, I know, what we need is a petrol shortage.

They should move it to the Sahel, where the desert is being 'greened' by more rainfall generated by the warming sea.

And in China they are rationing electricity because the Australians won't sell them coal.

Oil and gas prices are through the roof because globally the Earth had an unusually cold winter last year, and winds have been lower than average, causing a run on fossil fuels.
I have no idea why this isn't being more widely explained, but it's happened pretty much everywhere from New Zealand to North America.

I've been sat here in my Tentipi with the log fire watching it all go mad out there. A week off to relax chill and watch the world go by.
Luckily I don't need any fuel but to see the me me me attitude of human nature really sums up some people. Thankfully not everyone is like it.
Next toilet rolls and pasta will be in short supply so stock up the bunker 😄
