If you’re willing to commit outright fraud, lots of crime is easy. But also the penalty for ever being discovered can be severe.

I haven’t followed the effect of this particular shock on gas prices but generally with any supply shock it’ll depend on the magnitude and duration of the shock. The bigger the damage and longer it takes to repair means less gas delivered in the same time period.

If the shock is big and/or long (giggity), then I’d expect it to affect anywhere in Europe gas can be redirected from.

Energy is a global market.

If gas prices increase sufficiently where the pipeline gas is consumed, some suppliers that supply the UK may consider rerouting gas supply to capture the increased price and profit. This means less supply for the UK which increases prices there also until there’s a balance. Higher prices mean people will use less gas until the supply in each area is enough to meet demand.

It’s still a significant net gain because of the energy conversion efficiency of both EVs and large scale power generation. It also reduces pollution in densely populated areas which improves citizen health.

Still, they should clean their grid ASAP, but they are deploying solar faster than anyone else and it’s not close.

The Drumhead is one of my favorites

she’s a black woman? Seems like that’s enough for a lot of people.

Thanks! My son also has this toy

Don’t ignore the mystery part. With the migrant boat the outcome was immediately known. The sub outcome was unknown and people love to wonder.
