| 688318 | 2008-07-13 01:30:00 | Just think - all those lovely, well-paved motorways, just for cyclists!!! Who will care about the cycle lanes that (allegedly) hold up traffic? There won't be any traffic to speak of!!! Back to the traffic densities of the 60's!! :clap :D :clap |

Food would be expensive though, as transport would be near impossible. Famine??? The global population would almost certainly take a giant hit. And so would luxury goods like computers. It seems almost every part of the economy is hung off of petrol. |

Its been known about for decades, the large western governments have done nothing to curve demand, so now welcome to our new world. Luckily our food supply and economies are not heavily dependant on oil, oh wait actually they are lol. People think this problem is only about "transport" its actually one of the smaller side effects. |
