How do you feel about Diesel @ $9/litre in Australia by mid-July. That's the projection if there's a 26% drop in supply over the coming weeks/ months. 😮

⛽️ Japan relies on the Middle East for around 95% of its #oil supplies, with about 70% of that coming through the Strait of Hormuz. While Asia holds reserve stockpiles, #OilDependency is gaining political urgency.
The transition to #RenewableEnergy will remove this threat entirely.

![The Hidden Costs of Oil Dependency
NATIONAL BUDGETS, ECONOMIES, AND FOREIGN POLICY
Around 72% of global oil reserves are controlled by members of OPEC. According to the US Dept of Energy, oil price shocks and market manipulation by OPEC cost the US economy roughly $2 trillion between 2004 and 2008.
Within OPEC states, revenues from oil exports have significantly shaped political systems, allowing governments to finance state operations and consolidate power. Authoritarian regimes rely on oil income to fund security forces and suppress dissent.
As the global shift toward renewable energy accelerates, countries heavily dependent on oil, and oil revenues, face growing risks of economic and political instability.

⛽🌍 #OilDependency carries economic & political costs because supply is concentrated & traded through vulnerable chokepoints like the Strait of Hormuz.
With around 72% of global reserves controlled by OPEC, price shocks can ripple through economies & shape foreign policy.

No crisis, don't panic. But Norway's biggest company @statoilasa is offering voluntary redundancy to all its staff. #oildependency
