世界怎样避免又一次的能源危机呢? 年轻的温斯顿·丘吉尔在第 一次世界大战前夕进行了一场赌 博,从而改变了历史进程。作为海 军大臣,他决定让英国海军放弃 威尔士煤炭而改用进口石油,结 果英国战舰速度的提升使之取得 了对德军的决定性优势。这也开 始了一场地理上的抢夺,因为英 国要在敌手之前找到安全的原油 供给。丘吉尔相信“石油的安全和 确定性在于多样化,并且仅仅在 于多样化。” How can the world avoid another energy crisis? The young Winston Churchill made a gamble on the eve of World War I and changed the course of history. As the Navy’s minister, he decided to allow the British Navy to relinquish the Welsh coke instead of using imported oil. As a result, the speed of the British battleship increased to make it a decisive advantage for the Germans. It also started a geocentric snatch because the UK was to find a safe supply of crude before rivals. Churchill believes that “the security and certainty of oil lie in diversification and diversity.”
