They laughed at Trump when he tried to warn them. The bad part is that leftists never seem to learn.
As goes Europe, so goes Europe. American leftists will learn NOTHING from this very object lesson.
Win/solar electrical generation DOES NOT WORK.
Hydroelectric, coal, natural gas, Diesel, and nuclear DO work. Reliably, both as a standby and as a baseline source of generation of electric power.
And nuclear power CAN work, with the newer technology that has been developed. Thorium-fueled molten salt reactors eliminate very nearly every objection ever raised to older uranium-fueled light water reactors, and there is no, nada, zero, zilch chance that a “China Syndrome” situation with radioactive release could ever occur. So you could set the thorium nuclear reactor right in the middle of a populated area, eliminating the need for long transmission lines, likewise right next to the industrial centers that have huge demand for electrical power.
We should be starting construction of one new thorium-fueled molten salt reactor every week. In five years’ time we would be totally energy-independent by nuclear power generation ALONE. And in the cleanest way possible short of developing fusion power, an elusive dream that is always “thirty years away”.
I keep asking where is the transition plan for switching to Green Energy? The Libs plan is to block, sue, deny permits or building and permanently close any energy source which is not Green! Typical Lib destroy but don’t have a transitional plan to implement a change. They do not care how much damage their actions causes, you know ‘the end justifies the means’. Well I expect riots in Europe starting in Winter and once the food shortage hits, all bets are off! Creating a policy of no jobs, no money, no energy and no food is a plan which will not end well.
