Is Europe Waking Up From the Net Zero Nightmare?

Early last month, French President Emmanuel Macron shocked Europe by urging the European Union to take a break from imposing additional regulations on struggling industries. The EU has already done “more than its neighbors” to save the planet from environmental doom, said Macron. Any further steps would pose risks for European manufacturing and thus prosperity.

Perhaps seeking to present himself as the true leader of a united Europe, Macron has been speaking out on a wide variety of topics in recent weeks – apologizing to Eastern Europe for not listening to their warnings about Russian aggression while also suggesting that negotiations with Russia’s leaders be followed by pursuing Vladimir Putin and others for war crimes.

A major reason for Macron’s call for a halt to further self-flagellation over the “climate crisis” is his view that, “We are ahead, in regulatory terms, of the Americans, the Chinese, and of any other power in the world.” In another speech, Macron said, “I prefer factories that respect our European standards, which are the best, rather than those who still want to add standards and always more – but without having any more factories.”

Macron’s comments were followed a week later by word that the European People’s Party (which includes Germany’s Christian Democrats) is considering withdrawing its support for the European Commission’s Green Deal. That’s the set of proposals that includes EU-wide targets for eliminating carbon dioxide emissions by 2050 – which 11 EU countries have already adopted.

OFFS! Surely they meant PRETEND to save the planet blah blah blah. As in an earlier post, lets simply move to a wider orbit than the current one. What could possibly go wrong? Fookin' idjits!

“We are ahead, in regulatory terms, of the Americans, the Chinese, and of any other power in the world.”

It’s an EXISTENTIAL CRISIS, you woketard. It’s impossible to do too much!

France continues to use and build more nuclear energy for power generation. It is often quoted that 70% of their electricity is from nukes. Whatever the current, real percentage, they are building more. The Western world knows how to create safe energy. Despite all the Globull hoaxing, C02 is still PLANT FOOD. The democRATS have bastardized the language so much, and use one single word, carbon, to describe the entire Carbon Cycle. Whether you believe in God or not,* the Carbon Cycle is an amazing system. We used to teach it in school. Almost all life on Earth is carbon based. The democRAT party is indeed The Party of Death. Also, we are near the end of a warm period, and it will be very cold for much longer than not. The current theory is about 100,000 years of very cold, with intermittent warm periods (10-15,000 years). Sometimes their are fluctuations in this pattern. From around 1300-1800 AD, there were very few sunspots, and it was termed The Little Ice Age (these lower temperatures were left out of Mann's fraudulent Hockey Stick). The Great Cold will return, and all we can do is adapt.

Seems like a LOT of these owns never performed serious delicate tasks in sub freezing temps. I know, wear gloves. 😬

They want us all to believe its about climate change when we know its all about controlling US

This coincides with the serious revolt against the EU Green insanity in the Netherlands. I think the Dutch farmers are rocking the Euroweenies to the bone. 👍👍

Make those commies in Brussels constantly be watching over their shoulders waiting for a cow turd sammich to be hurled their way…or worse.

Meanwhile the Irish gov’t takes up the banner by going after farmers.

[bigfootbob]

They too will falter and fail. These WEF sycophants days are numbered.

This is what happens when Europe sanctions Russia, did they really think cutting off their own hand was gonna lead to anything good?

Hold on there! You are saying the Sun is the cause of cooling and heating on the earth?
The sun is too tiny to do this. It is but a small dot like the moon.
You are committing blaspheme!
Next you will say the earth is round and not flat!

You should be burned at the stake but that would release carbon and raise global temperatures....

“...really think cutting off their own hand was gonna lead to anything good...” Yoops, so there’s that. Just sayin’. Indicates why so many of our ancestors chose to move out of there.
