Has it saved the planet? Because from my perspective, it looks like they've just been paying more for gasoline all this time.
OK, so market preferences demanded oil that was cheaper than ‘green alternatives’ at the time, but now that the cost of oil has increased dramatically, it’s the fault of alternative energy options. Got it.
And in the end green technology just led to dependence of Russian fossil fuels. Are they in much better shape economically and environmentally now because of their anti fossil fuel policies? Did you even read the article and take note of what the result has been in France today?
Then, if only no European countries had bothered to ever opt for development and use of alternatives, and instead had all maintained a complete dependence upon Russian fossil fuels, they’d be much better off during today’s conditions, right?
