Greens Retreat as Coal Power Makes European Comeback

Russia's war with Ukraine, and the cut-off of oil and natural gas to Western Europe, have brought coal back to power plant furnaces across Europe. The return of coal is a sign that another war is being lost: the Green New Dealers' war on fossil fuels

Bottom Line

• Energy is the key to victory in war and prosperity in peace.
• Those shutting down domestic U.S. energy production in favor of foreign imports, take note: countries without their own energy supply are beholden to the countries that provide them with energy.

Is the Green Energy Climate Cabal Crumbling?

• Gazprom's Nordstream Pipeline cut the flow of natural gas to Germany
• Russian gas flow to Poland, Bulgaria, Finland, and the Netherlands has ended
• So while Russian forces are looking to isolate Ukraine from the Black Sea, Ukraine's backers in Western Europe are being forced into retreat from their environmental war on coal
• 37% of the world's electricity and 70% of world steel is produced using coal, so clean coal may have a future among the green states of Western Europe
