Washington Times: A woke, green future means soaring energy costs, blackouts, food shortages and more unemployment
"The green-energy future has arrived – in Europe – and it is not a pretty sight. Even more than in the U.S., many European politicians claimed that it was possible to go “green” without disastrous costs – but that lie has now come home. Natural gas and electricity prices have been surging as supply is being artificially restricted. The winds in the North Sea stopped blowing two weeks ago, the wind turbines stilled, and U.K. energy prices surged “to 11 times normal levels.”
Conclusion: "If you want to know what the unbridled “green future” will look like, watch Europe with soaring energy costs, blackouts, food shortages, and increasing unemployment and poverty."

If there's any country that might've been in a position to rescue Europe from its energy crisis, it’s the U.S. — home to vast shale fields holding a seemingly endless supply of natural gas and giant terminals capable of liquefying it and shuttling it abroad. Instead, for a multitude of reasons, U.S. shale is in no position to bail out Europe. Indeed, supplies are so tight that Americans are staring down their own supply squeeze — and the accompanying sky-high utility bills.

A shortfall in global energy supplies is spilling into crude markets and could add momentum to this year’s rally in oil prices, investors say. Even though it ended Tuesday’s session lower, Brent crude, the global gauge of oil prices, is near its highest level in three years and traded above $80 a barrel early in the day.
