Now the International Energy Agency (IEA) has proposed similar measures to lessen the oil shock following the Russian invasion of Ukraine and embargoes on Russian crude.

IEA said Western economies could reduce daily oil demand by 2.7 million barrels within four months by restricting how people drive, indicating the move to reduce highway speed could almost offset the 3 million barrel-a-day loss of Russian production for April.

"These efforts would reduce the price pain being felt by consumers around the world, lessen the economic damage, shrink Russia's hydrocarbon revenues, and help move oil demand to a more sustainable pathway," IEA said.

The IEA has unveiled a ten-point action plan it hopes Western countries will implement to curtail oil demand.



Reduce speed limits on highways by at least 10 km/h

Impact*: Saves around 290 kb/d of oil use from cars, and an additional 140 kb/d from trucks

Work from home up to three days a week where possible

Impact: One day a week saves around 170 kb/d; three days saves around 500 kb/d

Car-free Sundays in cities

Impact: Every Sunday saves around 380 kb/d; one Sunday a month saves 95 kb/d

Make the use of public transport cheaper and incentivise micromobility, walking and cycling

Impact: Saves around 330 kb/d

Alternate private car access to roads in large cities

Impact: Saves around 210 kb/d

Increase car sharing and adopt practices to reduce fuel use

Impact: Saves around 470 kb/d

Promote efficient driving for freight trucks and delivery of goods

Impact: Saves around 320 kb/d

Using high-speed and night trains instead of planes where possible

Impact: Saves around 40 kb/d

Avoid business air travel where alternative options exist

Impact: Saves around 260 kb/d

Reinforce the adoption of electric and more efficient vehicles

Impact: Saves around 100 kb/d

I don't know what Europe can do. And I don't care, that's up to them.

I know what WE can do here in America.
We can go back to what we were doing when trump was President and we were energy Independent..
Get rid of the Got damned Executive Orders that old retard Joe Biden signed, and go bakc to livi9ng like Americans.
Live free or die will soon become the watchword in America We are tired of restraints put on us by a Government we did not elect. We don't need knew rules to restrict us even further

When we all know the problem is in the White House and the Power mad Democrats in the Congress that think they can make slaves of us.

It didn't disappear, you just put it inside the quote box. If you have trouble typing outside the quote box (and I sometimes do) click the "Toggle BB" button above (looks like this: [ ] ) and then you'll see the old QUOTE tags and be able to type outside the box.
