As it turns out, not freezing to death and not murdering the economy is actually more important than meeting “climate goals.”
This is weird…. After “leading the way” for the climate communists, Germany now faces a freezing winter and ballooning energy crises — they’re at the precipice of an economic meltdown, so they’re bringing back their coal.
See what Bloomberg had to say:
Germany is set to boost its reliance on coal as it battles an unprecedented energy crisis — even at the expense of its ambitious climate goals.
…coal is making a comeback as countries seek to prevent soaring energy costs from triggering an economic meltdown. In Europe, the crisis is acute, after Russia curbed natural gas supplies in the fallout of its war in Ukraine.
(Oh how I’m relishing in President Trump’s ‘told ya so’ moment right now.)
Additionally, the article includes a quote from Carlos Fernandez Alvarez, who is the “acting head of gas, coal and power at the International Energy Agency.” A precursory scan of the website yields a consistent lexicon. You’ll see the words “sustainable” and “clean energy”, and some of their technologies include “carbon capture” and “methane abatement” — cull the cows and bring on the cricket food! (Obviously, the political agenda is one of climate communism.)
Per Alvarez:
Everyone is keeping their climate targets, but it’s true that when you face the dilemma to keep the lights on or decrease carbon emissions, the choice is to keep the lights on[.]
Two interesting points that arise from the above assertion:
First, Alvarez acknowledges that a transition away from gas and coal as a source of energy is at this moment, not achievable without forcing people to return to the Dark Ages. Ramrodding through policy to conform to “climate goals” results in “an unprecedented energy crisis”...

And all of this for a hoax created by leftist governments to grab the means of production and all of the power that comes with it.
They also kept some Nuke plants on line
It’s why they stopped calling it global warming and call it climate change. It covers any and all weather changes.
When you no longer have Russia's Natural Gas to burn, you have to fall back to what you have in abundance, which for Germany is coal.
so they came up with COVID
CHA- CHING !!! JACKPOT !!!
Reality bites the climate change alarmists in the ass.
Guess whose coal...
Russia kept spreading this "dissinformation" that one of the main reasons it cracked down on Ukraine was because of stealing/pilfering gas from the pipelines and FLAT OUT NOT PAYING RUSSIA FOR THE GAS (see hunter bidens' laptop)
"and you're not getting the 30 billion unless you fire the prosecutor"
German blockheads deserve it. Hard.

Me too!
“Wie kannst du es wagen?”

Original theory: Hydrocarbon use will cause global warming.
New theory: Hydrocarbon use will cause wild climate swings.
And that’s the thing about liberals. They simply will not accept the facts. Instead they will twist the facts to fit their fantasies.
I'm using that.
In 2019, when Rick Perry was Trump's Energy Secretary, Perry went to Ukraine and struck a deal with Zelensky to have a Texas energy company develop Ukraine's Natural Gas reserves, which would have then become a direct competitor to Russia's Nord Stream I and II gas pipelines to Europe, which would have cost Russia and Russian Oligarchs billions of dollars per year.
Some think this competition to Russian Natural Gas was the real reason why Russia invaded Ukraine.
it was the reason for WW1 and WW2
Japan and Germany lashed out and attacked the USD/British Lb stranglehold on oil and currency valuation
these days they just drive by and kill the saddaam or Ghadaafi or putin and take their money when they don't comply
but THEM are the evil ones, not US
As conservatives let us hope that this winter has a long-lasting effect on voting and politics, readiness, and strategic thinking for Europeans.
Germans are hoping for a lump of coal in the Christmas stocking this year.
