Producers of biofuel are bracing for what they describe as a potential "rat race" as the heating season approaches. Public discourse is heating up over the prospect of the coming winter, with significant concerns about the impact of severe cold and escalating energy costs.

There is apprehension that citizens might face extreme hardship, potentially leading to heart attacks and admissions to intensive care units if temperatures plummet to 30 degrees Celsius below zero and heating bills become prohibitively expensive. The article questions the public's resilience in the face of such challenges.

Written by Tomas Pudzinskas, a member of "Litbioma" and owner of the Marijampolฤ— small community "Bioteka LT," the piece reflects anxieties within the biofuel sector about the upcoming energy demands and the financial strain on consumers. The "rat race" metaphor suggests a scramble for resources or a desperate struggle to cope with the anticipated conditions.
