So anyone else enjoying the current rate for energy/gas going through the roof? or having your suppler go bust altogether?

So anyone else enjoying the current rate for energy/gas going through the roof? or having your suppler go bust altogether? Mine goes up £300 annually in November. Currently weighing it against the fact that my provider hasn’t increased prices in the five years I’ve been with them but it’s a very dramatic increase. Thankfully I don’t have gas in my place so I’m purely electric and that seems to still be relatively cheaper for now. |

Get used to short supply ... the world is over populated ... this planet only has finite resources. World population ... 500 year ago c400m 1960 3 billion, 2020 7.8 billion. If population growth continues as it is for next 60 years as in the past 60 , in 2080 the world population will be 20.3 billion |

Current estimates are somewhere between 9b and 10b will be the tipping point |

We're not trying to destroy our planet that has harboured human life for thousands of generations, it's just a side effect of our industrialist society and our over-consumption, not to forget the amount we waste. |

It has harboured life for thousands of years, but nowhere near the numbers we are seeing now. Instead of 3billion polluting in 1960, we now have 7.8bn polluting ... |

I tend to agree and like yourself, I fear what numbers will look like in a few decades...with medicine drastically improving more people are living longer (which is a positive thing) but now numbers are going to start becoming unsustainable for the world, especially if resources are only in patches of the world like they are currently. |
