Gas prices - Where is gas still affordable?

The outcry that renewables are unnecessary completely ignores climate change. Don’t you believe in it?

What do I have to believe in? Is climate change a religion or a phenomenon to be described scientifically? But you address our real problem very clearly: "belief in climate change" is the new green state religion. And just like in the Middle Ages, modern indulgence sellers are making a killing from it. They just had to rename purgatory to "climate heating" or something similar. It's a shame; I had hoped we would be further along in our cultural development...

me too, even if I am probably only indirectly affected. Very antisocial times are coming our way – unfortunately. Nevertheless, I firmly believe that with considerable effort, we could mitigate this. ACT NOW, and across the board. Means: speed limit IMMEDIATELY, reduce meat consumption (by what means?), ramp up renewables as much as possible, and implement all possible measures. Preferably simultaneously. And of course, the actions of each individual are also relevant.

First, we need to extend the operating life of the nuclear power plants so that we don’t have to continue generating electricity from gas. The reality is that without gas-generated power, the expansion of renewables will also have to be significantly reduced... Otherwise, a blackout or a major economic collapse will occur. By then, the smarter ones among the Greens will have slipped away, and the rest might be unpleasantly surprised. Otherwise, I would be interested to know what the previous speaker is doing to personally offset their biologically caused CO2 emissions to zero over their lifetime?

Apart from that, I think very highly of Habek, as he communicates very openly and uses clear words. I also do not consider Baerbock worse than various predecessors. Unfortunately, this does not apply to the entire coalition.

"We have a gas crisis, but no electricity crisis." Either he really does not know any better, in which case he is underqualified for his position and should return to his children's books, or he deliberately misled, which does not make it any better. Actually, it is even worse....

We are currently massively burning gas because half of the great nuclear power plants in France are offline.

What am I supposed to believe? Is climate change a religion or a phenomenon to be described scientifically?

A phenomenon to be described scientifically.
Global warming caused by additional CO2 is a measured fact.

So "indulgence trading" is not a good analogy.

You just have to bite into one of two sour apples:
- Transformation of the system with undesirable side effects.
- Higher warming of the Earth than without this transformation, with undesirable side effects.

What is not available is: Everything as before without side effects. That is the life lie of the "anti-greens."

Hello chand1986 Not bad. So there are "Greens" and there are "Anti-Greens". Apparently nothing else. Steven P.S. maybe this post will stay up. Most of mine fall victim to the deletion orgies.

There were quotation marks around it for a specific reason. Unfortunately, I can't underchallenge everyone at the same time…
