Close coal close nuclear. They’re gonna freeze in the dark.

[Brilliant]

I think us automakers are going to have an advantage soon.

[Innovative]

Good luck!

Have fun during the nice winters.

[myerson]

It’s gonna get awfully cold.

[DesertRhino]

Blockheads. They either do things perfectly, or they screw it up in ways you can’t believe.

"Germany, one of the world’s biggest consumers of coal, will shut down all 84 of its coal-fired power plants over the next 19 years..."

I guess Germany got tired of being defeated by other nations in the last century and have decided it's easier to simply defeat themselves.

[Secret Agent Man]

Idiocy reaching heretofore unknown heights.

[Dahoser]

Just how many death wishes do the Germans need? Are they afraid that death by unchecked Islamic infestation won’t be enough?

[corkoman]

what could go worng?

[pricilla]

And that’s why those dumbasses lost two world wars.

[dangus]

I’ve driven the VW my wife used to drive, engineered in 1,001 ways to screw up in ways you couldn’t imagine.

Oh well, they won’t be buying our coal anyway (they produce their own), but they’ll buy our storage cells: renewable energy needs to be available when it’s not generated much.

[House Atreides]

For a supposed smart people, the Germans sure are making a bunch of idiotic moves. All in the name of the Al Gorean Church of Falsified Science.

Well CO2 will still blow in from other countries and don’t forget about all those breathing people and the soil ,OMG the soil ,D’oh

[eyeamok]

The decision to quit coal follows an earlier bold energy policy move by the German government, which decided to shut down all of its nuclear power plants by 2022

Why would anyone think that Freezing to Death in the Dark in the name of Global Warming would be a good thing??

[Army Air Corps]

That’s not terribly bright.

[infool7]

They’ll soon change their minds

when the price of electricity

skyrockets and the

wicked winter winds of the

grand solar minimum

begin to blow.

Delightfully astute, Rhino!

[SuperLuminal]

I call this fake news... 19-years is 7-years after the U.S. is destroyed by globull warming... AOC has clearly told us... So, if we are gone, the glorious 4th Reich will certainly be gone...

[Gay State Conservative]

And for every one Germany shuts down China will open up 10.
