Electricity shortages are looming for the UK and Europe, and then later for the rest of the overdeveloped world as well. Blackouts will become common, and you will get power only for a couple of hours a day — just like in countries with a less favorable economic position. Most likely not this summer though, maybe not next year. Perhaps not even the year after. Losing a stable electric grid is a slow grind and will go in tandem with the long decline of fossil fuels.
If we had another 100 years of a growing energy supply, growing population, imagine what the year 2123 would look like. By the 2040's at current rates of fishing, there would be no more fish to eat. We will have eaten them all. After fish, every animal gets eaten to extinction. At 1% population growth to the year 2763, we'd have one person per square meter on the dry land surface of the earth.
Already at the point of diminishing returns unfortunately.
What people don't realize is, modern industrial society works only with a perpetually growing energy supply. Petroleum being the most important energy source, because, it takes diesel, a lot of it, to mine for coal, uranium, concrete rocks, iron to make steel with the coal mined using diesel, everything needed to build out any conceived replacement for the current infrastructure.
Conventional petroleum long past peak, conventional plus unconventional peaked in 2019.
What people don't understand is that the petroleum supply is now going to shrink for the rest of our lives, year after year. This means that all the oil is accounted for, there won't be enough to maintain our current infrastructure.
This is where people get it wrong when they say X energy source will save us.
Every X energy source, requires mass amounts of diesel run machinery to build. We're at the point today, today, that there's not enough diesel/oil to maintain current infrastructure. Let alone increase diesel production ten fold for the next 50 - 100 years to build out some new system run on X energy.
Modern industrial society is already over. No way around it. Been known about for 80 years probably longer. No replacement or alternative has been found.
Powers that be have their own plans for us, managed depopulation.
Most people have not done a deep dive into energy. Not the miracle energy of the future, but the energy that got us to this point. The rest of the people don't even know what energy is or what planet they're living on. Therefore, an embarrassing amount of people think that "they just want to control us".
Yes, the people who won the monopoly game of EARTH for the last, centuries, who have unlimited money, are shutting everything down and also ending their way of life, for control and power because they're CrAZY!!!!! CRaZzzYyy mAannn!!! EViLLL!! They just want to get us mannnnn!!
Global outlook: Not looking good
Enjoy what you got today. This is it folks, get mentally prepared for a wild ride, lot's of big events on the horizon, bigger than anything you can imagine.
I know of a technology that used a keen mix of different waste products ('waste to waste' principle) to create the temperatures needed to first create an ash which then was melted a very high temperature. Creating three phases. 1) a metal alloy containing for example silver, gold, platinum and other heavy metals which could be seperated by elecrolysis and refined. 2) an amorph vulcanic glass mass called obsidian, containing traces of lighter elements (for example lighter metals). And 3) a gas containing lighter (organic) molecules and elements. The gas was then washed with very low (in some cases 10.000 times lower than legal norms) concentrations of harmfull emissions. Actually at the end stage of the technology development the gas didn't contain any CO2. A special technique was used to capture it. Several measurements from different parties have shown this. All of the above was done with a minimal amount of auxilliary fuel. As promising this technique was back in the 90's (developed by one company in the South of the Netherlands) still the local governments managed to get the facillity closed due to so called environmental law violations.
B, What do you think, when you hear about this technology, called the 'Zero Option'? Is it something which by the sound of it could help to slow down our demise (when properly applied)? I'm glad to share more details but I was just curious to hear from you.
Thank you B🙏
