I’m an avid skier. I’m also a building contractor and have been for decades. I understand business and economics, as both have been involved in my career. My research goes deep into global economics.
All year I’ve known what is coming. There was one day last winter when I was skiing with a friend that I felt quite overburdened. I told my friend that I felt like I was carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders that day. When he asked why, I explained the coming energy crisis. He respected my opinion, but he was basically in disbelief.
So over the Spring and Summer of this year, I wrote a song – my first song ever – about skiing, or more accurately the lack of skiing. The song, “First Chair” is written from a future point of view when the global energy crisis is in full swing. Energy lockdowns have been implemented, ski resorts are closed and we can only long for the days when we were free to ski.
My extensive research has led me to conclude that the world is headed into an energy crisis. With each passing day, more and more signs become visible that I am correct in my assessments and conclusion.
I sincerely wish that I am wrong.
Sadly, I don’t believe that I am. Others who are deep into the statistics see it too:
