The desired regulations were probably known before the crisis to justify them was invented.
Judging from what I had read about Germany, they were already finding good cause to back away from the “new green climate controls” & go back to energy sources that had actually worked. Of course that would not necessarily stop some idiot (just as in this country) from dreaming up more impossible ideas to promote “green energy”. Not driving on weekends would not go over well in either of our countries, I think.
