Basically the title, just wanted to see how people are approaching the very real possibility of global fuel shortages in the coming months.

I feel good on food to help lessen the blow of inflation, but looking at the el nino's effect on agriculture I'm reluctant to burn through my food supplies too much.

How does everyone else feel? What are you doing to prepare?

I would say drive less but we barely drive. I have like 30k on a 10+ year old vehicle.

    I believe cars and driving to be a huge drain on society for many reasons. That's not to say they aren't useful, but yes, we rarely drive and see directs benefits from it. I hope fuel rationing can keep key transport moving, but we'll see.

    one thing that drives me nuts is I would like to live more city center and not have a car but it gets to expensive and even if there is some downturn and yu can finagle something it eventually recovers and you end up having to leave. so it ends up not being stable. Like the downtown condos if someone were to gift you one the assesment and taxes alone are a heavy lift.
