Das passiert, wenn das Gas zur Neige geht. • Da die Lieferstopps unmittelbar bevorstehen, verbrennen die asiatischen Länder, die größten Importeure von Flüssigerdgas aus dem Nahen Osten, bereits mehr Kohle und reduzieren den Verbrauch.

Submission statement:

The article discusses the immediate and long-term implications of the gas shortages in Asia due to the US/Israel war on Iran. A lot of Asian countries import a huge portion of their energy needs from the Middle East and that is about to stop in a few days when the last ship that was already at sea as the conflict started arrives. Some countries will deal with it by switching to coal, others will just pay the higher price, the poor ones will have to wind-down industrial investments as they reduce consumption. In the long term, since this is the second disruption in gas exports in just a few short years, the entire concept of LNG being a reliable fuel is undermined and some countries will look for alternative energy sources to replace it.

So much for environmental and other things we were listening for years lol.
