THE FUTURE OF EUROPE will be tied to the future of energy in their part of the World - The next decade could be tough. And when the AMO turns colder, it could get tougher. Greenies may be weenies in the not too distant future. People will choose to be warm and employed ... or else. I can't see them laying down in a snowbank and giving up.

This conversation needs to be had on the floors of the US Senate and House of Representatives. It needs to be drilled into their thick little skulls. And refreshed week to week. You can believe in a greener future without being a suicidal moron. It needs to go "full public" across the airwaves to show the public just who wants to kill them.

Not everyone is happy. Wonder how they would do if forced to meet the working public face to face in a confined space without body guards. 
Opponents say the mine is a major blow to the U.K.’s status as a world leader in replacing polluting fossil fuels with clean renewable energy. They argue it will undermine global efforts to phase out coal and make it harder for Britain to meet its goals of generating 100% of electricity from clean energy sources by 2035 and reaching net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
John Gummer, a Conservative politician who heads the Climate Change Committee, a government advisory body, said the decision “sends entirely the wrong signal to other countries about the U.K.’s climate priorities”
Doug Parr, policy director at Greenpeace U.K., said “the U.K. government risks becoming a superpower in climate hypocrisy rather than climate leadership. How can we possibly expect other countries to rein in fossil fuel extraction when we’re building new coal mines here?”

People are struggling to heat their homes and food prices are skyrocketing. Yet Greenpeace nutjobs are relentless in their push against fossil fuels and nitrogen use in agriculture. Common sense is becoming rare... |

I guess this best fits here because it directly relates to the effects of the German energy crisis. It probably fits in with both the World War Z and Winter 2022-2023 threads as well. I should probably start a thread called "You Can't Fix Stupid" but it turns out German hog farms are feeling the pinch of high energy and feed prices. Germany is losing it's food producing ability and rapidly de-industrializing. I don't see how you can lose this many pig farms and still have pork. This from the CNN article: "Germany also lost 1,900 pig farms this year, following a drop of 1,600 farms between 2020 and 2021. In October — the latest month for which data is available — production costs for all meat jumped nearly 47% over the same time last year, Destatis data shows." www.cnn.com/2022/12/23/business/german-pork-production/index.html |

Polls show that 60% of the population in Germany still "trusts" their government. I can't find any data on it but my guess would be that less that 25% of American's trust ours. There are 246 less people in Texas that died in the freeze of 2021 because they trusted their government to keep their power on when they needed it. It's good to see some German's still capable of thinking for themselves and have taken steps to prepare. www.nytimes.com/2022/12/25/business/germanys-energy-crisis-is-a-cue-to-chop-wood-and-stock-up.html |
