Historical data show that a reduction in energy availability has mostly affected the US, European countries, Japan, and other advanced economies. I expect this situation to continue as energy limits (oil and coal, especially) become more of a problem. Advanced economies will start looking and actin...

The US already has a huge amount of LNG export capacity approved but not yet under construction. The likely roadblock is the need for debt financing.

In this post, I try to explain the energy bottleneck the world is facing because of an inadequate supply of diesel and jet fuel, and the effects such a bottleneck may have.
