Tverberg: The World Has A Major Crude Oil Problem; Expect Conflict Ahead Authored by Gail Tverberg via Our Finite World blog, Media outlets tend to make it sound as if all our economic problems are temporary problems, related to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Asked whether he’d ignore the notice, Peters said he’d “do a whole lot more than that… It must not go unchallenged.” Winston Peters trespassed: Jacinda Ardern pushes back on Trevor Mallard’s call…
