If you think the prospect of fuel shortages are worrisome (you can always walk), think about ‘food’ (what to eat then?).  It likely takes 10X the resources to produce meat/dairy than veggies & grains (much of which now goes to feed livestock instead of people).  Glad I won’t be around when that 8 billion becomes 16 billion starving people! Things could get tense.

Blacktie, is on to something all the Politition's never talk about. He mentions that Calif's population has tripled since 1955!. Hense Water shortages, Wildfires etc. And up here in western Canada record floods etc. Still our esteemed (?), Canadian  Prime Minister is inviting 200,000+ people a year to come to Canada! .And we wonder why housing prices here have doubled in just a few years & the price of fuel has also doubled etc.. And then of course Covid 19 hit.. Mother Nature is rebelling!.  As one of my car buddies says & he's seen a lot in his now 90 years.. "too many people".  Winston Churchill, a man who had seen a lot in his life time, said many years ago, a couple should only have 2 children, 3 at the most, because you might lose one. The World is moving towards 8 Billion people!!.  Historians have estimated that in year 1800, the world's estimated population was likely about 1.3 Billion..  And we wonder why comodities like Gas keep climbing in price?....             

we in canada have huge supply of crude oil, but our brain dead leader still thinks we should drive a electric home
