Winter Is Coming and the Global Energy Crisis Is Going to Hit Us in the Pocketbook

Winter Is Coming and the Global Energy Crisis Is Going to Hit Us in the Pocketbook

See all the latest videos and articles patriots need to watch and read at Discern.tv.

Editor’s Commentary: As we noted yesterday, shortages due to the failing global supply chain will make life increasingly difficult for Americans in the months ahead. But rising food and supply prices are not the only are of major concern. The energy crisis, which has been brewing for even longer than our supply chain woes, appears to be hitting its stride right at a time when millions of Americans will not have the means to address it.

Winter is coming, which means heating fuels are going to be needed. But prices are already starting to climb on fossil fuel products as we’ve all seen at the gas pump. It will translate into higher gas bills as well with some experts predicting a 50% increase by the middle of the cold season in the northern hemisphere.

As I also noted yesterday, I’ve never been a “prepper” when it comes to getting ready for an economic collapse, but we live in a strange world in 2021 and that’s not likely to change in 2022. If anything, it’s going to get worse which means we need to have our resources solidified and our supplies stocked up. For some, that’s simply not possible as day-to-day survival makes it impossible to accumulate what’s needed ahead of rising prices across the board.

With food, there are often cheaper alternatives. I just ordered a month’s worth of ramen noodles to store for the lean months (years?) ahead. Being new to “prepping,” my buddies laughed at me for buying something that needs to be cooked in water, but hey, ramen isn’t so bad unheated when you’re desperate. Unfortunately, there’s nothing we can do about an energy crisis on an individual level other than getting off the grid and supplying our own sources of energy. Again, that’s simply not possible for tens of millions of Americans.

The article below by Michael Snyder details what he believes is coming. He’s been far ahead of the game on this one, noting for years the need to prepare for economic hard times. Now that they appear to be upon us, his warnings have taken on a more real-time approach. We’re not talking about the future economic hardships that many will face. Those hardships are materializing before us. The energy crisis is real and ramping up in time for winter. I’ll let Michael explain…

As The Global Energy Crisis Explodes, They Are Warning That Heating Bills Will Be Extremely Painful This Winter

Whether you like it or not, a major global energy crisis is here, and it is going to hit all of us right in the wallet.  Today, markets for energy are truly global, and that means that price spikes in one part of the planet will inevitably filter elsewhere.  For example, a lot of natural gas that is produced in the United States is now heading for Europe, and that is pushing up prices here.

As energy supplies get tighter and tighter, power bills are going to go higher and higher.  In fact, the U.S. government is now warning American citizens to expect heating bills to rise more than 50 percent this winter.  Needless to say, a lot of families out there simply cannot afford that.

For a while, the mainstream media was trying to deny what was happening, but now they are openly using the term “energy crisis” to describe what we are facing.  Here is one example…

Far from emerging from the COVID shock awash with fuel, as might be expected after an economic slowdown, the world is entering a new energy crisis the like of which hasn’t been seen since the 1970s.

European and Asian gas prices are at an all-time high, the oil price is at a three-year high, and the price of coal is soaring on the back of energy shortages across China, India and Germany.


Dr. Joseph Mercola said, “Synthetic meat is the epitome of ultraprocessed food, and it seems naïve to think it won’t have health effects similar to other ultraprocessed junk foods.” For All-American REAL beef raised in pastures, sous vide, then freeze-dried for long-term storage, visit Whole Cows and use promo code “no junk” at checkout.


Global demand for energy is only going to increase in the months ahead.  Summer just ended a few weeks ago, and the middle of winter is still months away. So if you think that things are bad now, just wait until we get into early 2022. At this point, even CNN is admitting the truth…

Astronomical increases in natural gas prices. Skyrocketing coal costs. Predictions of $100 oil.

A global energy crunch caused by weather and a resurgence in demand is getting worse, stirring alarm ahead of the winter, when more energy is needed to light and heat homes. Governments around the world are trying to limit the impact on consumers, but acknowledge they may not be able to prevent bills spiking.

So exactly what kind of “spiking” are we talking about? Well, this week the federal government announced that it is now projecting that heating bills for U.S. consumers will be 54 percent higher this winter…

Get ready to pay sharply higher bills for heating this winter, along with seemingly everything else.

With prices surging worldwide for heating oil, natural gas and other fuels, the U.S. government said Wednesday it expects households to see their heating bills jump as much as 54% compared to last winter.

Actually, if heating bills only go up by 54 percent this winter I think that we will be extremely fortunate. Many believe that they will shoot up a lot higher than that, because energy prices here in the U.S. have already been going completely nuts…

Natural gas in the United States, for example, has climbed to its highest price since 2014 and is up roughly 90% over the last year. The wholesale price of heating oil, meanwhile, has more than doubled in the last 12 months.

“Nations, states, and central banks are quietly but rapidly shifting their money to precious metals. With bank runs, recession, CBDCs, and worse on the horizon, it’s easy to see why. NOW is the time to learn more about moving portions of your retirement or wealth to a self-directed gold and silver IRA through an America-First, Christian precious metals company.” – JD Rucker (not a financial advisor, just a guy who’s paying attention)

Another reason for the rise is how global the market for fuels has become. In Europe, strong demand and limited supplies have sent natural gas prices up nearly 350% this year. That’s pushing some of the natural gas produced in the United States to head for ships bound for other countries, adding upward pressure on domestic prices as well.

I know what a lot of you are thinking.  Millions of families are not going to be able to afford these price increases, and that is going to cause widespread financial hardship. Even before this new energy crisis erupted, a large portion of the U.S. population had to “forego expenses for basic necessities” in order to pay their power bills…

To make ends meet, families are cutting deeply. Nearly 22% of Americans had to reduce or forego expenses for basic necessities, such as medicine or food, to pay an energy bill in at least one of the last 12 months, according to a September survey by the U.S. Census Bureau.

Despite all of the money that the federal government has thrown at people over the past couple of years, much of the nation is still deeply suffering. According to another recent survey, close to 40 percent of all U.S. households “have faced serious financial problems” within the past several months…

Nearly 40% of US households have faced serious financial problems, including struggling to afford medical care and food, in the last few months, according to a survey published on Tuesday.

The survey by NPR, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health also showed that in those last few months, as the US struggled to contain the infectious Delta coronavirus variant, the percentage of households reporting serious financial problems rose to 59% when they had an income under $50,000 a year.

Normally, a number like that would indicate that unemployment is rampant. But as I discussed the other day, the U.S. is actually in the midst of an epic shortage of workers right now. If you want a job, you can go out and get one.

Of course the vast majority of the jobs that are available are very low paying jobs, and rampant inflation is devaluing the wages paid to such workers a little bit more with each passing day. On Wednesday, we learned that on a year-over-year basis inflation is rising at the fastest pace in 30 years…

Consumer prices increased slightly more than expected in September as food and energy price rises offset declines in used cars, the Labor Department reported Wednesday.

The consumer price index for all items rose 0.4% for the month, compared with the 0.3% Dow Jones estimate. On a year-over-year basis, prices increased 5.4% versus the estimate for 5.3% and the highest since January 1991.

Needless to say, the official government numbers greatly understate the real rate of inflation. According to John Williams of shadowstats.com, if inflation was still calculated the way it was in 1980, the official rate of inflation would be well into double digits at this point.

And now this new energy crisis is going to make things even worse.  Virtually everything that we buy has to be physically transported, and now shipping stuff around the country is going to become significantly more expensive.

In my last two books I specifically warned that inflation would spin wildly out of control, and now it is happening right in front of our eyes. The experts are telling us that this is going to be a really cold winter, and a lot of American families are going to be forced to make some very difficult choices. Many will decide to keep their thermostats uncomfortably low, but as long as the power stays on most of us will make it through the coming months okay.

The real danger would come if we start having blackouts like other parts of the globe are already experiencing.  As we witnessed in Texas last winter, the loss of power for an extended period of time during a cold stretch can have absolutely disastrous consequences.
