On today’s episode of Bright Videos News, Mike Adams reported on a worsening diesel crisis, with retail prices ranging from $6 to $8 per gallon nationwide and nearly $8 in California. He noted that the national average has risen from $5.34 to $5.60 over the course of August alone, attributing the spike to insufficient domestic refining capacity following the closure of major refineries in Houston and Wilmington, California. Adams warns that the current 25-day supply buffer is alarmingly low, and without resolution to geopolitical disruptions such as the Strait of Hormuz situation, widespread diesel rationing could become a reality through 2027. He advises viewers to consider transitioning to solar-powered electric vehicles for greater energy independence, as sunlight remains a more reliable resource than global fuel supply chains.
Adams also presented a forward-looking segment on the potential for off-grid robotics in home food production, predicting that humanoid or dog-style robots with gripping hands could become available within the next few years. He emphasized that such robots would be best suited for slow, repetitive outdoor tasks like weeding, moving compost, and monitoring irrigation, freeing up human labor for more complex responsibilities. Adams expressed a strong preference for open-source robots that operate locally rather than through cloud connections, citing privacy and security concerns. He intends to develop and share free behavioral code for these platforms once a suitable hardware system becomes available, envisioning a future where homesteaders can automate much of the labor involved in growing their own food and medicine.
