[QUOTE="sherrick13, post: 3801128, member: 9406"] I've said it many times. Environmentalism is a luxury and more importantly a political tool. Not a necessity. Stupid ****ers. I was kind of hoping they would have stuck to their guns and let the people get cold. Obviously getting reelected is more important than the environment to German politicans. [URL="https://www.dw.com/en/germany-to-fire-up-coal-plants-as-russia-turns-down-the-gas/a-62182321"]Germany to fire up coal plants as Russia turns down the gas | DW | 19.06.2022[/URL] [I]"To reduce gas consumption, less gas must be used to generate electricity. Coal-fired power plants will have to be used more instead," the Economy Ministry said in a statement. Habeck also said that more gas had to be pumped into storage facilities. "Otherwise, it will be really tight in winter," he said. Currently gas storage facilities in Germany are around 57% full. Habeck lamented the necessity to use coal more to produce electricity, but described the current situation as serious.[/I] [/QUOTE]
