Every empire falls the same way.
The "wealth pump" overflows.
A tiny elite siphon off the surplus, hollowing out the society beneath them until it cracks.
It’s happening again. But it doesn't have to be this way.

The economic sense is so extremely in favour of renewables now, Pakistan is even paying Qatar penalties to rather NOT deliver the fossil gas that Pakistan already placed orders for, because their Solar PV and batteries make much more sense.
It saves them money to cancel their gas imports and pay!
It saves them money to cancel their gas imports and pay!
So Pakistan is *paying* Qatar to *not* deliver LNG because even including this penalty payment their solar PV and battery spending is much better value for money and saves them billions.
