"Energy Poverty" really sucks. Europe's leaders can blame Putin, but this is really the fault of the idiots that let the Climate Wackos get them into the Paris Climate Accord. I sure hope American voters are paying attention.

When you are done with that pray for FRANCE
Macron warns "end-of-abundance" after they did every they could do to restrict supply.
My favorite story from France was when a French utility proclaimed they would not buy US frac LNG to virtue signal last year. How did that work out for you?....Sacre bleu!

Re: Pray for people in Eastern Europe
In recent years, Poland has been the most vocal critic of EU climate policy set by a petulant Scandinavian teenager, and a staunch defender of coal that generates as much as 80% of its electricity. But coal output has steadily declined as the cost of mining at deeper levels increases. Coal consumption has held mostly steady, prompting a gradual rise in imports. In 2021, Poland imported 12 million tonnes of coal, of which 8 million tonnes came from Russia and used by households and small heating plants.
In July, Poland ordered two state-controlled companies to import several million tons of the fuel from other sources including Indonesia, Colombia and Africa, and introduced subsidies for homeowners facing a doubling or tripling of coal prices from last winter.
"As much as 60% of those that use coal for heating may be affected by energy poverty," Horbacz said.
