A global energy crisis is coming. There's no quick fix

[Thread]

And the problem is what?
You can put strap your bike to the bus if you cant walk.

There's a bum living in the damn thing. I pass by that bus stop for 5 years and he's always in there. I'd have to walk another mile to get to the next one up.

And can you see me trying to finagle that bike in that trap thingy? Oh, yeah, that'd work alright. I'd try my damnest, and fail, he'd toot the horn, I'd yell..."Trump President, not Clinton!!!" and he'd drive off without me.

I'll just have to plunk down the $4.00 a gallon that's comin' up like thru a Xmas goose. My lone salvation, peeg? You'll be plunkin down that $4 a gallon as well.

coal shortages in India

On Saturday, the Delhi chief minister had also written a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, demanding that adequate amount of coal should be supplied to plants such as Dadri-II and Jhajjar TPS that provide power to Delhi.

Kumar also admitted that the shortage of coal is currently a problem, according to ANI. “As per our requirement, either we get it from NTPC [National Thermal Power Corporation] or from private companies,” he said. “But the supply is affected now.”

Kumar added that the problem is not limited to Bihar, but exists elsewhere as well.

The statements by the chief ministers came as Union Home Minister Amit Shah held a meeting with Power Minister RK Singh and Coal Minister Pralhad Joshi. In the meeting, the ministers discussed the availability of coal for power plants and the current demand for electricity, according to PTI.

Coal generates about 70% of India’s electricity. Shortages of the fuel have left multiple states with supply enough to generate power only for a handful of days. In normal situations, states have a stock for 15 to 30 days.

In the past few days, governments in Punjab, Tamil Nadu and Rajasthan have imposed power cuts in parts of the states.

You could LEARN to get your bike up on it. Its not that difficult. If they saw an old man struggling someone from the blue team would probably help you.

Im not griping about it.
Especially if it gets more people off the road.
Where I kayak Id love gas to go up so the damn air boats and such would be priced out and they too would have to actually use some muscles and be much quieter on the water. Bring it on... more Bikes, Kayaks, Public transportation. Im in. and Old people driving by the medical center area in SA are dangerous. Have their relatives help them or get on that public transportation.

Rising demand, underinvestment and net zero commitments present an "energy straitjacket"

A Global Oil Shortage Is Inevitable

“On current trends, global oil supply is likely to peak even earlier than demand,” Morgan Stanley’s research department wrote in a note this week carried by Reuters.


“The planet puts boundaries on the amount of carbon that can safely be emitted. Therefore, oil consumption needs to peak,” analysts at Morgan Stanley said.

Just plain crazy prices

[Winehole23]

Brent crude near $140/bbl, DJIA futures down 400.

Bit of noise about cutting Russian oil and gas, hard to see how that wouldn't cause a demand shock -- recession. We could end up in a recession over energy prices regardless. As pointed out in the thread, prices present affordability problems for both industry and consumers.

Iranian oil may not be a safety valve

Russia has threatened to torpedo an imminent agreement to revive the Iran nuclear deal by linking it to Western sanctions imposed after the invasion of Ukraine.



Speaking in Moscow late on Friday, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Moscow had asked Washington to guarantee that Russia’s future trade with Iran would not be subjected to Ukraine-related sanctions.



Otherwise, the Kremlin would not endorse the prospective Iran nuclear deal, he said, raising the spectre of a Russian veto if and when an agreement is presented to the United Nations Security Council for approval.

Now beside MBS and Mad down in Ven. Biden has to kiss Uraini, I mean Iranian ass. Not a year ago he swore up and down he was going to play hard ball, and make 'em like it. Not a year later, he'll put hat-in-hand and go beggin'..."I'm sorry for what President Trump did, but you'll find me much easier. Por favor?"

the Keystone Pipeline that Biden shut down wasn't going to be delivering any additional oil until 2030 at the earliest.

Fact is

Joe Biden shut down Keystone!

And that has zero impact on what energy prices are right now, but Republican voters and failing to comprehend nuance are a duo that goes back like hot wheels and race tracks.

Is that what you're demanding, Darrin?
