Countries Suffering Energy Shortages

Here is a list of countries with reported energy shortages occurring within the past few months.   While Americans and Europeans may grumble about paying more to fill up their comfortable vehicles, a lot of people in poorer areas are sweltering in heat, freezing in the cold, reading by candlelight, and having trouble getting to work, if their place of work is still in operation. We are just beginning to see the early demand destruction that will surely accelerate as fossil fuels start to become supply constrained.

    I’m a South African citizen, and was under the impression only third world countries were suffering…looks like we all being sent back to the middle ages.

    This list is 6 months old now (4/19/08). It would probably be much longer now. And now doubt should include some individuals in virtually all countries.
