I don’t understand why there’s no secondary option if Strait of Hormuz goes down. Obviously there are alternative routes out there but why big gas companies even governments did not see this coming. Are they okay losing billions? Or do they actually have a plan that ordinary people don’t know about?

    There’s no plan. Most states have strategic reserves of oil and gas, but that’s about it.

    Thankfully world shifts to renewables organically year by year.

      What most people aren’t aware of, is that those reserves are enough to keep the military running for like 3 days.
