    Germany Is Turning Against The EU's Green New Deal, Common Sense To The Forefront

    France recently called for a pause on the Green cult. Now Germany turns on them too.

    Germany Is Turning Against The EU's Green New Deal, Common Sense To The Forefront

    The Spectator asks Is Germany turning against the EU’s Green Deal?
    Last week it was President Macron who was rowing back on green measures. In a speech he asserted that Europe has, for now, gone far enough – if it introduces any more regulations without the rest of the world following suit then it will put investment at risk and harm the economy. This week, the European People’s Party – a centre right grouping which includes the German Christian Democrats, the party of Commission President Ursula von der Leyen – seems to be joining in.


    The party is reported to be considering withdrawing its support for the European Commission’s Green Deal. That is the set of proposals which includes, for example, an EU-wide target for eliminating net carbon emissions by 2050. Whilst 11 EU countries have already set themselves legally-binding targets to reach net zero by 2050 (or 2045 in the case of Germany and Sweden), if the Green Deal were to go there would be no obligation on the other member states to follow suit.


    Germany now seems to be taking over from France as the seedbed of opposition towards zero carbon policies, not least because it has more severe policies – and because its self-imposed, earlier target of reaching net zero by 2045 is increasingly looking out of kilter with reality.


    last week a new party, ‘Burger in Wut’ (Citizens in Anger or BiW) took 9.6 per cent of the vote in state elections in Bremen. As with the Dutch Farmers-Citizen’s Movement (BoerburgerBeweging, or BBB) which came top of the country’s regional elections in March in protest at the government’s efforts to close down farms in order to meet nitrate targets, it was the speed of BiW’s rise which caught many unawares.


    An Excellent Green Energy Proposal From France, President Biden Should Pay Attention

    Last week I commented on An Excellent Green Energy Proposal From France.

    I am not accustomed to seeing good proposals from France, but here goes: Macron Calls for ‘Regulatory Break’ in Green Laws to Help Industry


    A pause is good but a rollback of Biden-sponsored madness would be much better.


    President Biden should pay attention. But is he even awake?

    I want to see Biden triple down. I want it to get as bad as the greenies can make it here. Put us back in caves cooking over open fires. No electricity whatsoever. No phones. No internet. Only then, perhaps, can we get rid of these idiots.

    How will the green cult react when people start cutting trees down en masse to make fires.

    Germany has turned out to be a bright spot among countries that have faced up to the flaws of renewable energy.

    While they were quick to jump into the fray, they've also be very astute in their observations and have been saying for a few years now that they're seeing problems with the technology.

    Hopefully, the US will pay attention.
