RE: The need for Alternative Energy Systems to avert China imported Generating sets - COVID-19: Good/Bad?

in Project HOPE5 years ago

Hi @uyobong

The Coronavirus is obviously causing so much damage everywhere and is already impacting so many lives - I know mine is. I do wonder though that when the dust settles there will be a few things that have changed in our lives.

Do we need to travel around the world so much? Can we not work from home more and cut down on unessary travel? Do we need such global supply chains with so much reliance on China?

Some will be forced to look for alternatives like you are suggesting is happening in Nigeria in the example you have given. This is a positive side effect of such a horrible situation.

I believe though things will quickly go back to the old ways as people forget the hardships and money starts driving people's decisions again.

Yeah. Thanks @Awah for stopping by. Sometimes all we need is to look at the bright side of life.

Agreed. By concentrating on the positives we help save ourselves from insane worry by always seeing the bad things. Sometimes that is hard, like now when we are facing this disaster, as there is just so much bad news. Things will get better again though.
