Fatih Birol leads the International Energy Agency. He warns of a very hard crisis. It is about energy supply around the world. Wars in the Middle East are the reason.
A narrow sea passage is very important. It is called the Strait of Hormuz. Many ships with oil and gas pass there. But this route is almost closed now. This is a big danger for the economy.
Birol says: The crisis is worse than before. He now asks people to save energy. People should work more from home. A speed limit on the roads should also help. Politics must act fast now.
