It looks like the #eu just about made it through #winter despite #russia 's #putin 's best efforts to make it as tough as possible: https://www.economist.com/finance-and-ec.. Some people have said that a warm #winter may cause massive issues elsewhere, though.
Why is the #uk partnering up with the #wef #world #economic #form ? https://youtube.com/watch?v=gx_XZOxaujg Are times not hard enough already? Can these people actually fuck off? People don't know if they will #heat or #eat this #winter , and here we are being signed up to a *massive* #financial #burden . *STOP FUCKING SIGNING US UP TO THIS SHITE.*
About to get #cold in the #uk , just in time for the #energy #crisis over #winter . Great.
I spoke to people who were in these #meetings about the #uk #planned #blackouts during #winter due to a lack of #russian #gas https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/le.. They are said to be " #wargames ", but these are #planned potential #reality . On top of this, it looks like it will be a really #cold #winter this year.
Yeah... An #estimated 26 #million #british people will apparently be in #fuel #poverty by the #winter of 2023/2024: https://www.zerohedge.com/political/fran.. This is why I have put several #plans in motion to prevent this happening to me. It will still be close, though.
#germany better be hoping they get #lucky with a #weak #winter this year: https://www.zerohedge.com/weather/german.. Honestly though, in the #uk I felt some ultra #cold mornings, and I highly #suspect we're in for a *really* #tough #winter .
A bit late on this one but the #uk will have 3 hour #blackouts this #winter https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/uk-nati.. Apparently we would get just one day #notice and the #aim would be to #reduce #power by 5%. I suspect most people will just #plan their #activity for another day, or #travel to somewhere with #power .
Looks like the #us may not #escape the #energy #crisis coming this #winter https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/your-n.. There is definitely #exponential growth there...
As I said previously, #energy #shortages are now *extremely* likely over this #winter https://news.sky.com/story/energy-crisis.. If only somebody could have seen it coming...
#germany is in for a *very* #cold #winter as a #gas #shortage is expected to hit the #eu , meaning there is *none* at *any price:* https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/g.. The #uk is also in for the same deal, but little #preparations are made here...

Yeah, the #uk is not looking good over the #winter for #energy https://youtube.com/watch?v=9Wc_I6dffrI The only good thing is that we are somewhat #decoupled from the #eu , being #energy #secure in the #eu is no good if your #neighbour is #short ... It's a shared #drig after all. Expect #power #instability in the #eu .

I now have a #ups #ordered - apparently the #uk will have more #blackouts , possibly even #rolling #blackouts during #winter . As my #work relies on a #computer , it makes sense to have an #uninterruptible #power #supply . Hopefully I can figure out how to #charge it on #cheap rate #electricity .
As a #scientist / #engineer , I think this #view is the #energy #crisis is quite #insensitive https://www.science.org/content/article/.. People are going to *die* this #winter in #europe due to not being able to #heat their #homes . They will *die* because of the #food #shortages . The will *die* because they lose their #income and have no real #social program to lean on. #research is what happens when times are good.
