In two weeks Dear Leader will have his environment minister present plans to parliament, on making Canada a green paradise. Lets look at California to see what that could possibly entail. Oligarchs want us to power down.

UBS: Oil demand holds up in Norway, despite record electric car sales
In September, electric cars reached a record 77.5% share of new car sales in Norway. Yet, surprisingly, oil demand is higher than ten years ago when the first zero-emission cars were sold in the country.[..]
Of course, it should also be noted that oil demand does not come just from car usage. Globally, we estimate that passenger vehicles account for around a quarter of total oil demand.
Do tell.

Biden’s Oil Madness
[T]he Biden Administration’s climate-change envoy, multimillionaire and private-jet owning John Kerry, laments that Russian president Vladimir Putin might no longer remain his partner in reducing global warming.
“You’re going to lose people’s focus,” Kerry frets. “You’re going to lose big-country attention because they will be diverted, and I think it could have a damaging impact”
“Impact”?
Did the global moralist Kerry mean by “impact” the over 650 Russian missiles that impacted Ukrainian buildings and tore apart children?
Are Russian soldiers losing their green “focus”? When Putin threatens nuclear war is he merely “diverted”? Would letting off a few nukes be “damaging” to the human environment?
Climate-change moralists love humanity so much in the abstract that they must shut down its life-giving gas, coal, and oil in the concrete. And they value humans so little that they don’t worry in the here and now that ensuing fuel shortages and exorbitant costs cause wars, spike inflation, and threaten people’s ability to travel or keep warm.
Read it all.

Environmentalists Are Happy
No matter what we may think of the Ukraine/Russia war, one group is excited. The Greta cult. In related news, I wonder if Canada’s Environment Minister will be flying over there to take part. Extinction Rebellion to block oil refineries.
I’m Sure It Will Balance Itself

Reuters- Russia, China agree 30-year gas deal via new pipeline, to settle in euros
The deal would be settled in euros, the source added, in line with efforts by the two states to diversify away from U.S. dollars.
“China’s coal shortage last year served as another wake-up call that natural gas has its special value, that’s why CNPC decided to top up with the new pipeline deal,”
Environment Minister Hans Gruber Is Excited
If only we had oil in Canada. And don’t forget the scheduled carbon tax increases. Gas prices could top $2.00 a litre this weekend.

TOBIN: Trudeau government’s energy motto should be “unfair, unrealistic and uneven”
The Simulation Is Angry
On Thursday, February 17, 2022, shortly after midnight, Houston RCMP was called to the Marten Forest Service Road (FSR) after Coastal Gas Link (CGL) security reported acts of violence at their work site.
It was reported approximately 20 people, some armed with axes, were attacking security guards and smashing their vehicle windows. It was initially reported that some CGL employees were trapped, but all had managed to safely leave the area.
Upon police attendance at the 41 km mark, the roadway had been blocked with downed trees, tar covered stumps, wire, boards with spikes in them, and fires had been lit throughout the debris. As police worked their way through the debris and traps, several people threw smoke bombs and fire lit sticks at the police, injuring one officer.
Fiery, but mostly peaceful.

Schadenfrozen
Since November, the amount of natural gas arriving in Germany from Russia has plunged, driving prices through the roof and draining reserves. These are changes that Gazprom, Russia’s state-controlled energy behemoth, has been regularly pointing out.
“As much as 85 percent of the gas injected in Europe’s underground gas storage facilities last summer is already withdrawn,” Gazprom said on Twitter a couple of weeks ago, adding that “facilities in Germany and France are already two-thirds empty.”
Surely, spring will arrive in time.

We Don’t Need No Stinking Giant Fans
1h UK energy regulator Ofgem lifts the price cap on retail gas and electricity prices **by 54%** from April 1, from £1,277 to £1,971 per year […]
And here’s the government response to the £700 per year increase in retail energy costs: millions of households will receive £350 of government support (subsidies, it’s called subsidies) to offset the hike in electricity and gas prices.
And with a snap of the fingers — EU classifies nuclear power and natural gas as ‘green’
