Wonder if chuck wants to crow about that green revolution in Europe now.


https://business.financialpost.com/opinion/climate-policies-helped-put-54-million-europeans-into-energy-poverty-canadians-are-next Climate policies helped put 54 million Europeans into 'energy poverty.' Canadians are next
According to the EU, 54 million people already cannot afford their energy bills

The number of Europeans affected by this problem is high. According to the European Union in its 2015 report on rising energy costs, fully 11 per cent of its member states’ population — that’s 54 million people — already cannot afford their energy bills. The EU further estimates that fully one-quarter of residents, or 128 million people (and that includes the existing 54 million), are at risk of being energy poor.

One of the main reasons why the EU and UN push the carbon tax and climate agenda. They want to simply fund this green machine and try to offset the huge costs by attacking the oil industry and fossil fuels. Follow the money, it has virtually nothing to do with CO2, but they have convinced millions of people. So instead of massive profits going to the oil industry, its going to the green machine right or wrong. And so far the average Joe is the net looser all under the guise of saving the planet.
Taxing the middle class to death is proving to be an economic bomb and the fuse has been lit by the UN.
Higher energy costs and tax's simply take away from basic needs from 95% of the population.
If/when green energy is 1/2 the net cost over fossil fuels, then this whole dream will make sense. Until then it will just further erode the little disposable income left for the middle class.

We are setting the price by growing too much for the amount of rich people who can afford to buy it. You can't always absolve yourself and blame everyone else.

Tweety, Canada is insignificant in the global grains trade. We have zero effect on the pricing regardless of supply and demand.

Just talked to fellow in Holland pays .22 Euro for a kwh. All in with distribution we pay $0.34 cana buck

A little looking finds 1.71 cdn dollar in a pound. 1 kwh in UK costs 12 to 13 pence or 22 cdn cents per kwh plus fixed charge of 80 to 100 lb

Poverty in UK is 60% of the mean. The article is short on numbers, but they pay what we do. The article is click bait, perfect for Agriville.

WTF does this mean?

Ever hear of supply and demand? Probably not.

Bahaha Daddy tell you that one? So if we produce more, it increases supply. Increased supply, lower price. Lower price, cheaper to eat. Cheaper to eat, the poor buy more with the funds they have.

That is why I am curious why you argue the opposite?

Newsfeed on my Iphone told me just today that subsidies for solar panels in Nevada means that citizens get their panels free......so we asked the waitress at Red Rock, “do you have free solar panels on your roof?” She says , “No Way, the installation would still cost us monthly bills adding up to $20,000 and for a few months in the summer, the electric bill goes up over $100 - $170 to run the air conditioning.” “We use natural gas in winter and the bill is around $70 a month”. She says it is a totally wasteful use of her money.
