The odd part
Bengaluru achieves 'Net Zero' (and Net Smoke) by replacing high-tech LPG with the reliable power of a bundle of sticks.
What happened
In a stunning display of administrative planning, a commercial LPG shortage has forced the cloud-kitchens of India’s tech hub to revert to firewood. Software engineers are now witnessing their artisanal sourdough being baked using 'Ancient Cloud Technology' (smoke), while startups are reportedly seeking funding for 'Wood-as-a-Service' (WaaS). The transition to firewood ensures that even if the internet fails, the smell of burning timber will keep the IT corridor grounded in the pre-industrial era.
