The OP was asking about Oil not tomatoes. It's still a commodity ...
Well not exactly...unless you know a way I can source oil in my back garden. I'm all ears! you can't burn wood ? I have gas and a wood burner. I get cold the power is out because of a blizzard tornado or hurricane. I just do what is necessary. Do you ?
Forgive me Bear Grylls, what was I thinking? A Londoner can burn wood in their non existent fireplace...or up high in their tower block.
All of a sudden, you're suggesting alternative to gas and oil. Why the change of heart?

"Would you rather the uk government bought no oil and gas from Russia because of uktraine as an attempt to reduce the income or would you rather we did and reduced the inflationary costs? People have such reliance on anything that gives them comfort they will bitch about anything nowadays. The entitlements are disturbing sometimes. Seeing a post about tomatoes. Really... Grow your own not that freaking hard. It's the " What can government do for me " attitude is what is shocking to me. It's not easy to grow tomatoes on the 17th floor of a London flat. So you are reliant on government to provide and not self preservation? The government doesn't provide people with tomatoes. Not even one of the weirdest things I've seen on fab today. Just Admit you want everything Handed to you because you think you are entitled to it. Just so we're clear. Highlighting that the government doesn't provide tomatoes to the population = I want everything handed to me because I think I am entitled to it? Why complain about Brexit again? Your pissed about a majority of people making the decision. Every little bump in the road the News tells you. You are there to try and remind others of thier decisions. Just like others. What's this got to do with tomatoes not being provided by the government or about the question in the OP? Feel free to nswer the questions I'll be honest, I don't understand Blu's questions. Blu is saying she can be self proficient in heating and food and we here aren't, we are more reliant on services providing our basic needs. So what's the question? Feel free to answer the one I posed." Sorry OP, you've been hijacked! | |||

So why purchase when you can be self reliant? Your ancestors done it why can't you? I'll tell you why.. Government. If you can't see that control well.. you are blind. | |||

"Would you rather the uk government bought no oil and gas from Russia because of uktraine as an attempt to reduce the income or would you rather we did and reduced the inflationary costs? I would like to see our government and governments of the world putting pressure on Opec, to remove Russian influence on oil and to stabilise the market for the next 5 years. To be honest.opec can do as it wants I've no problem. We can dictate to them what prices they set. Like they can't dictate what financial services and libor rates are set. We can choose who we buy product from though." I do not believe we are pushing hard enough on the Opec+ countries to influence oil prices today. Oil reliance is falling and Opec+ will continue to hold us over the oil barrel to protect their asset value, if we start to explore next gen energy and involve those countries I think we can influence positive outcomes today and secure future energy sources at the same time | |||

"Would you rather the uk government bought no oil and gas from Russia because of uktraine as an attempt to reduce the income or would you rather we did and reduced the inflationary costs? " A good conundrum. Being honest I have no idea as I would need more data to make a decision. Do we know what proportion of our oil and gas comes from Russia? Can we offset that with increased production/purchase from other oil and gas producers? Do we have sufficient leverage with those other producers to ensure they do not inflate their costs? Are we on a war footing and therefore does the increased profits being made by oil and gas extractors and utility companies represent “war profiteering”? One key lesson we surely have learned is that the UK needed to upgrade rather than decommission rough storage AND the the licenses for North Sea extraction should have had a clause prioritising domestic supply. | |||

As I mentioned in a post above we are not doing enough to manage the Opec countries, who are going to become more aggressive with oil supply as our reliance on oil starts to fall. The Opec countries have the perfect environments for making 0 emissions fuel, in my opinion we should be influencing the move to this fuel production now, and tying it in with the switch from oil to stabilise the price of a barrel over x years. This should give the Opec nations confidence in their future and confidence to begin building the infrastructures needed to produce 0 emission fuels. | |||
