    We have an everything crisis, really. As far as energy goes I think it would be a safe bet to assume that sometime in the near future everything will be electric, including cars. At some point I expect you won’t be able to buy gas appliances, and then some time after that they will shut down the gas network. The same situation for petrol cars and wood stoves & heaters. It won’t be overnight, but that’s the way things are headed.

      Whatever doesn’t kill us I suppose if er…it’s not too late already. I’m always fascinated that many of the great advancements and inventions that previous generations thought were amazing turn out to be terrible and leading human kind to extinction.
