Imported natural gas from the United States proves to be more economical for the citizens of Germany than its own Chancellor’s decarbonization experiments.

I find it amusing that the close ties the U.S. has had with Germany for many decades, and the historic role Ronald Reagan played in denouncing the Berlin Wall which eventually led to the demise of the Soviet Union, has been completely erased by our withdrawal from the Paris Environmental Accords and our President’s rejection of the climate change theories. It illustrates how adherents of man-made climate change get into a frenzy when you start to question its theoretical credibility.  In fact, by all polling measures it ranks very low on the priority list of the American people, and for that matter most of the world.

It’s ironic the German people have benefited more from our President’s focus on U.S. energy dominance than from Mrs. Merkel’s climate policies. Germany has been labeled the green-energy super power, but the facts don’t bear that out. More than 80% of its total energy consumption in 2016 came from fossil fuels, almost all of which is imported. This puts them right where the Russians want them, and don’t think Russia hasn’t used that leverage in many geopolitical matters.
