The oil crisis. Soon there will be no oil left in a lot of countries. This is much worse than anyone thinks. Seems to be toned way down, because they all thought the war would be over in 2 weeks.

The real thing with the oil crisis, is the lack of cheap oil look how we're already strugling with petrol above 2 EUR a litter. Politicians need to to massive investment in low-carbon energy source and public transport, and eco-friendly building, because if not people won't afford driving to work or heating their home.

Please don't speak for the world. The only idiots who thought the Iran attack would be over in two weeks were in Washington.
