That’s the message from the Queensland Minister for Sustainability and it’s likely to be coming some time in the next 10 years.
According to the Minister we shouldn’t be getting our hopes up about hybrid fuels and electric power either because the infrastructure needed to cope with a switch to alternate fuels just isn’t there. It’s unusual for any politician to paint such a grim picture without offering some hope of a magic wand that will cure all the hassles that fuel rationing will create so perhaps this is a message that is worth heeding.
I guess we can expect the cost of fuel to go on rising … in the UK yesterday it cost the equivalent of $A96 to fill the tank of a Mini.
