Comment on Australians urged to work from home and drive slower to save fuel
dockedatthewrongworf@aussie.zone 4 days agoCompletely agree but sadly even if the war was to stop tomorrow the shut down of oil producing and refining facilities means that there will be a shortage for the next 6 months (apologies for not having a reference. I can’t find the statement which I think was made by the IEA but will add it if I can).
Hopefully the state and federal governments will start pushing for more subsidies for public transport.

Thats the general consensus, yes - 6 months at best.
However, every day that continues makes that “best case” less achievable.
Today theyre talking about deployments indicating boots on the ground.
