Just as the average price in Hong Kong would kill a European on contact.
The price per unit is less shocking than the percentage increase from February to now, which is more or less the same regardless of what continent you’re on.
I’m annoyed that we still even have gas. Where is my Solarpunk!?!
I unironicaly contemplated breaking out of a bus and attacking a pipeline with whatever I could find during a trip to a monastery. Main reason I didn’t was my family was with me.
So, yeah, I was that close to just doing it.
Imagine my glee when I heard Ukraine was blowing up pipelines, and America refineries.
average euro prices of fuels would kill american on contact
Canada is not much better. $1.70 to $2.05 (or more!) a litre. That works out to $4.75+ /gallon
During COVID I was paying about $9 per gallon for gas and right about $10 for diesel. Right now my daughter is paying $9.80 a gallon for diesel.
This was Germany
I’m just impressed you did both conversions.
I think that’s a Canadian superpower due to the ungodly mix of imperial and metric units that’s going on there.
Maybe that’s why they’re always apologizing, feeling guilty due to their relationship with units!
While it’s a significant jump over the last month, the United States and Canada are experiencing about the same price increase proportionally.

Now do rods to the hogs head!
Could you convert that to chain/butt for me?
I just filled up at $4.79/gallon at the discount gas station. It’s up to $5.79 at Shell and Chevron.
Americans don’t learn metric precisely to not understand European fuel prices.
“What’s a leetur?”
“How much is a You-Row?”
Why row when you can use an outboard motor

perhaps, but only americans bitch about it so loud that you can hear it across the ocean
I mean yeah lol. I used to drive 80 (~128 km) miles a day to go to university. I would have been broke with European gas prices.
And yes I would have loved to have taken public transit there, but it simply didn’t exist
Australia is 8.22 usd per gallon for diesel.
I’ve been seeing the news for weeks now, but only last week did I actually check what EUR/l those values were and I nearly died laughing…

Perfect…
mehhh we charge our ev and ebikes off solar on our roof.
Alas we’re Australian and our rail is 18th century and mostly closed down, rather then prolific and electrified because… well, we’re fucking idiots.
Shouda gone to war for it.
