Severe enough to possibly trigger a third world war.
This was fundamentally a cross-era technological advancement.
The first industrial revolution was the era of the steam engine, marked by the appearance of the steam engine.
The second industrial revolution was the electrical age, indicated by the internal combustion engine replacing the steam engine.
The third industrial revolution was an era represented by biotechnology, aerospace technology, and electronic information technology.
Up to now, humanity had yet to undergo a new industrial revolution, and the biggest constraint was the energy issue.
The most important energy source in the steam age was coal, and there was no doubt that oil was the most important in the electrical age. Until now, humanity had not found a new energy source that could completely replace oil as fuel.
