One of my Italian friends has posted a couple reels on instagram the past few days of stores that were almost totally empty. So even just the fuel prices (though in this case it’s more a strike because of fuel prices) are hurting food availability. It could get pretty dire pretty fast if fuel gets scarce rather than just expensive.

And I don’t think those sectors can electrify that fast, but certainly faster than industrial fishing.

Maybe return to tradition: donkeys with carts and sailboats? Wish it was more of a joke. Realistically rail for long distance and EV trucks for more local distribution probably is viable on a pretty narrow, though not immediate timeline.
