UN and BRICS+ in Countering Wars and Conflicts to Eliminate the Energy Crisis

Abstract

The 2022 energy crisis has been a major shock to the entire world. The world entered 2022 with expected (oil) or actual (coal) shortages. This was the beginning of the crisis. The environmental agenda gave way to increasing the security of energy supply. Both in terms of ensuring a smooth energy transition and being prepared for extreme scenarios. Today, the looming energy crisis seriously threatens the maintenance of normal society, including fuel for transport and logistics, electricity for lighting and work, and gas for our kitchens. The world is now facing a very serious energy crisis — a period of energy shortages and rising prices. This energy crisis is caused by a number of factors, including the disappearance of non-renewable energy sources such as oil. However, the most pressing factor is war. Energy shortages will increase costs for individuals, as many will not have enough energy to meet their basic needs. This will force people and governments of the UN and BRICS+ to look for solutions to save energy. The author of the article believes that the appropriate and effective solution to save energy is to counteract wars and conflicts and move to peaceful life.
