[LOLOL...the “Law of Unintended Consequences” rears its ugly head once again.]
Tell the Greenies Reality just called on Line 1 and is holding.
Until I was 5 our family heated our house and cooked the food with coal. I remember getting scolded many times for playing with the coal and getting dirty. We used to have it delivered half ton at a time. We got a kerosine heater in 1949 and switched to a gas stove for cooking in 1950. Still used coal to heat the water. The water heater was plumbed to the kitchen range (coal burning) so until 1952 we had three different types of fuel. Then we got a gas water heater and we stopped using coal.
It’s only the law of unintended consequences if you think that it is want planned at some level. Wood is a very limited resource. They burn 40 years of wood growth this winter and then they won’t have any way to keep warm next winter. Lots of them will freeze in the dark then lowering the population particularly of old people who are most likely to use more resources than they produce. This goes with the Great Reset wanted by the WEF.
That’s a great story about growing up. We live now in such a clean, thermostat controlled world, anyone under the age 40 has no recollection of those times.
I think that’s one reason I enjoy camping. Nothing like waking up and having to make your own heat. Reminds you of what life was like, and could be again.
Leave Europe Alone!...its transitioning.
Why do I have a feeling though that Europe's growing population of African and Middle Eastern immigrants will not be impacted by rising energy prices or a scarcity of resources?

Have visited folks with coal. Boy is it a warm heat. They had a coal burner in the basement.
Drivel
Coal and lignite are plentiful and cheap
I think these clowns went around gathering fallen limbs and pruned branches. Yes I am serious.
When we had a wood burning stove we had to let the wood dry out before burning it. Usually a year.
In less than 2 years, America will be crying the same tune.
Ancient civilizations were wiped out many times for the exact same reason — the forests were wiped out. Same with whales for whale oil. Oil wells (instead of oil seeps) were invented in the nick of time to save the whales.
When you’ve lost the NYSlimes . . .
whole trees are being harvested for power.

its called chipping - and is a common logging practice. Chip the tree and used the chips to make fuel or turn into burnable pellets.
A thousand years from now archeologists will be wondering how the most technologically-advanced civilization the world had ever produced was wiped out. They won't have easy answers as all the books will be gone and the internet archives had long ago went off-line.
Well the “new Germans” have a lot less to lose. Though the old Germans don’t live lives of luxury by our standards either. I read that the average “poor” family in the USA has a higher standard of living than the average European middle class. I do know that the average home size in Germany is 1120 sq ft which is small by US standards.
Thanks for link.
Well, that should cut down on all the wildfires in CA./s
Just allow people to harvest the dead wood/trees and dead branches on the ground. That would provide for heat and cooking, plus help clean out the underbrush.
