Indulging in BS fantasy collapses when you are facing cold, hunger and the rioting and mayhem that follows. I guess they are not laughing at Trump now.

So Germany is going back to burning coal. Ruh-roh. Somebody is going to get an angry letter from you-know-who.

That’s not hard to figure: Germany has proven reserves equivalent to 154.6 times its annual consumption. This means it has about 155 years of Coal left (at current consumption levels and excluding unproven reserves).

And they don’t have to kiss Putin’s ass to get it. Just Greta’s...

Alexander Bethe, chairman of the Board of the Berlin-based Association of Coal Importers, is sure of that: "This winter, we will certainly import over 30 million tonnes (33 million US tons) of hard coal to keep our power stations in operation. That would be 11% up on 2021."

Before the war in Ukraine, 50% of the coal for Germany's power stations was imported from Russia.

Coal-fueled power generation is an efficient dependable and remarkably clean resource. In the US the big switch from coal to natural gas was largely due to the incredible drop in price of NG relative to coal due to fracking. The CO2 canard was not really a driving force, except through the costs imposed on coal by the malice of the government. Europe just foolishly went whole hog and now is paying for it. Doubt they will learn their lesson, but we’ll see.

“Germany’s energy U-turn: Coal instead of gas”

No wonder it’s so hot in Texas today.

7-8 years ago Germany was even importing our Appalachian coal. They should resume this.

The Germans will not be compromised as a Country and know how to remain independent. This new Senate Bill being voted on now will constrain the USA for many years to come.

When will someone get around to admitting that CO2 emissions are actually beneficial? They are great for agriculture, and don’t do diddly to climate.

Since its publication in 1841, an essential book for understanding humanity is Charles Mackay’s “Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds”. The current climate change frenzy would certainly belong as a chapter in that classic book.
