Global Shortages of Everything
This weekend some german family came to visit and enjoy the last remnants of warm summer in spain.
For context, they live a bit above average, owning a small company with a big warehouse and employ a handful of people.

We did talk about shortages, and they do seem to be going to have a BAD situation this winter. (Despite being in such an economy) As they explained, they usually spend slightly less than 2k€ to warm a 3 storey house during winter next to the city of Stuttgart. This year, the energy company estimates that its gonna be just above the 5,5k mark. And the worse of all, the #german #government in their area has limited the harvesting of wood around their area, and #forbidden the use of #woodstoves without specific homologation and licenses on the neighborhood.
