Energy crisis in Europe

@Cierzo Good response, and I tend to agree.

@senghenydd I agree that nuclear is a good (albeit controversial) alternative.

Because it is controversial, a lot of countries are reluctant to do it. The E.U hasn't pledged that it will become less dependent on Russian gas by going nuclear so there doesn't appear to be any alternatives in place. In April, Germany said they were shutting down their last remaining nuclear power plants, and that was two months *after* Russia's invasion and a depletion in gas from Russia. They've insisted on putting sanctions in place, knowing full well what the costs are...why they aren't at least trying to come up with viable alternatives is beyond me.

They could do fracking, but they went and banned that too 😂

@SW-User News sources from countries outside Western Europe has suggested Western Europe has bought sufficient stocks of LNG for the coming Winter, supplies has been purchased from the Middle East , this is good news obviously this news must be kept low key. Long term arrangements need to be put in place for future energy supplies.

@CheekyBadger They don't really have much choice lol...otherwise they wouldn't be able to use gas for things considered essential and people would be going without 🤷🏻‍♀️However, they really don't have any alternatives in terms of replacing it.

@SW-User Nazi Germany was defeated by countries sticking together. If you fallow statements by General Ben Hodges on Russia -Ukraine war it will give better understanding .

@Khenpal1 Duh, I know that.

we will get rid of Russians.

This is what I'm asking you to expound on.

@Khenpal1 You didn't get rid of nazis, they migrated to US and other countries. You got rid of a dictatorship though

@Coppercoil ikr 😐

Im not religious.. but there are stories in the bible about the end times that start with a war between russia and Germany. Of course the *country* names of the country are not the same but the areas referenced are. Its interesting to say the least.

@Coppercoil
That is simply amazing. And which bible would that be? Are you referring to the collection of books known as the Old Testament, written/collected, thousands of years, before Russia and Germany existed, or the New Testament, written 1,500 years before Germany and Russia existed?

@BluntSm0ker Exactly

Silly bastards
