Consider how western Europe (esp. Germany) and even the world is held hostage by Russia and affected by Ukraine in the current Ukraine War.....Russia supplies 40% of the gas to Europe, and Ukraine is the 'bread basket' of the world (a major global exporter of wheat and food) 

nuclear energy could by 2050 supply about 10 per cent of the country's needs, with advancements in nuclear technology making it safer and more reliable.

A fragmented world makes it tougher for countries to work together to achieve their climate targets, which means that the share of electricity imports in Singapore's energy mix would be limited due to slow development of the regional grid

1. Discuss the view that, with an increasing global need for energy, every possible source should be exploited to the full. (Cam. 2014)

2. How far should countries aim to be self-sufficient? (Cam. 2011)
