ᐅ Gas Prices – Where Is Gas Still Affordable?

Will we get as much gas from the USA as we would through NS2?

No, but the USA and France are our best customers. If they buy less, it hurts more than the closure of NS2. Furthermore, Germany is protected by the USA. Or do you think our Bundeswehr could do anything against Russia? People should look beyond their own perspective. It’s not as simple as some make it out to be.

The energy costs for a house will rise from today’s 200 euros to 800 - 1000 euros within a few months.
All prices will increase by a factor of 5, including food and other everyday essentials.

A factor of 5 means 500 percent!

This is, of course, possible. It could also happen that extraterrestrial lifeforms land on Earth and dominate all the especially well-dressed humanitarian lifeforms.
Who knows...

I’m not a fan either, but let’s be honest, I vote for the party that, in my opinion, delivers the best government performance and aims to provide all of us, according to my moral compass, with the best possible life. Right now, that’s clearly the Greens by a wide margin. Everything else can be thrown in the trash.

I’m curious if you can still so easily justify "the best possible life" in poorly heated homes and perhaps even with power outages as extras.
Seriously, how can anyone have such an idealistic, almost naive view of a particular political party? Especially the Greens, who have a notably preachy, quite authoritarian political style and are hardly open to criticism.
😱 😱 😱

Who really knows.....

But the "extraterrestrial life form" has already landed in Germany and is trying to shut down operational nuclear power plants. It has even been very successful in recent years......;)

We must not forget that the CDU drove this into the ground over the past years, and now we have to deal with the consequences. Blaming the current government for this, in my opinion, is wrong. They have achieved more in recent months than the CDU did in the last 16 years.

Again: The CDU-led governments have effectively implemented 100% green policies in the energy sector since 2011. Now the Greens are facing the shortcomings of their ideology and, ultimately, the physical fact that 100 wind turbines produce the same amount of energy as 1,000 wind turbines during calm wind conditions—namely 0.0 kWh.

The "renewable" energy missing during calm conditions (or under heavy cloud cover and at night) has to be compensated with gas or coal power if CO2-free nuclear energy is rejected but there is no wish to return to a “powerless” medieval age.

There are moral lectures about CO2 emissions, yet coal power plants are being ramped up and CO2-free plants dismantled. And I won’t even start on the geopolitical dependencies that have been "foolishly" accepted and the potential supply and economic crises that are being recklessly risked. Sorry, but “moral” looks quite different to me...

Would you like to live near a nuclear power plant?
Or next to a final repository?
