Another great place ruined by socialism. It's a cancer.

and one of the 100 companies responsible for the 72% of global emissions .

New Refinery and Purchased PEMEX Deer Park,Tx, complete turnaround, sounds like a documentary from the PRIAN...

And nuclear options

That’s the sanctions for blackmail have its price … feel it on skin

Wouldn't this make the price of goods go up in europe?

BS all this reverse flows and sources of gas coming from Russia. Talking as if Italy have gas resources to supply. Lol

Hardly a crisis for EU.

Viva Russia 🇷🇺

Freedom for Mali, Niger and Burkina faso. We wish you best of luck and new transformation for Africa 🙏

This is historic, long live the union.

Super info, gracias.!!!

Fossils fuels were made by earth sun system over tens of millions of years. They are one and done gifts of nature. Today we're going through 100 billion barrels of oil equivalent flammable fossils energy annually. Wells do not produce oil, we extract oil from the wells. Once a well is fracked there's no hydrocarbons left. Easy oil is long gone. Each new find more difficult expensive and of lower quality. There is no Fossil Fuels Fairy refilling the holes. In addition over 66% of the energy from fossil fuels is lost as waste heat. Only 33% at most become useful energy.

Wind turbines and solar panels is a bad idea for supplying a larger grid. They can be ok on a small farm or a cabin in the wilderness. First off all the production is not predictable and is dependent on the weather. There is no cost efficient or practical way to store the energy when the production is high so that it can be used when the production is low. It is a bad business idea because when it is blowing a lot there is too much energy available and they may have to sell with loss. When the production is low they have to buy energy from other sources to comply with the demand. In Sweden the last few years the loss have been 39% for the reasons mentioned above. There are just too many turbines and they canabilize each other. Then there is the issue of stability of the grid. These systems are asynchrony and constantly try to balance the production to the grid. With dozens if not hundreds of turbines that is difficult if not impossible. At least 60% of the electricity has to come from large generators that are synchros and that leaves us with fossil fuel,hydropower or nuclear energy. In 2021 Europe was 4 minutes away from a major blackout due to no wind. In Texas they had a major blackout due to wind turbines freezing. The energy has to be plan able so that the production can be in accordance with demand. The demand will change throughout the day but will also be dependent of the weather. Electricity has to be consumed the same moment it is created. To comply with demand and be able to variate production quickly the energy is usually generated by fossil fuel plants. Then there is the case of durability of the turbines. Only a half year ago the German and the Spanish governments had to bail out Siemens Gamesa with 86 billion euros and an additional guarantee for 165 billion euros. Siemens Gamesa is the world’s biggest manufacturer of wind turbines and they were about to go bankrupt because their turbines broke down much earlier than they had promised. The blades on a turbine cannot be recycled and used again so they usually have to be buried in a landfill or somewhere else. They throw off micro plastics that can go into drinking water sources and will be absorbed by humans and animals. There are several liters of lubrication oil in each turbine that can leak into the environment. The magnets in the generators are made out of rear earth metals that are not mined in environmental friendly way. Then there is the infrastructure each turbine will need. First of all good roads to each turbine so that they can be built and regularly maintained. The grid to get the energy out to the consumers will have to be much larger and complexed than if it came from one large generator. It is estimated that to cover the demand for electric grid to this kind of system we will need as much copper for the next 30 years that has been mined by humans from the beginning and up to our time. Wind turbines kills birds and bats in great numbers. Specially exposed are birds like eagles, hawks and falcons. In addition there will be noise that is harmful both to humans and animals. It is specially the low frequency sounds that can carry far. You have probably noticed youths with large stereo in their cars. Have you noticed that you hear the thumping of the bass long before you see the car. To be more efficient the turbines have to be large and high but that also increases the noise. For your private economy you will be hit with fluctuating prices and usually high electricity bills. For companies it is even worse because they use more electricity and they like the prices on energy to be as predictable as possible. Then comes the day when these turbines have to be decommissioned and the landscape put back to normal. If the company owning the turbines declares bankruptcy who will pay for the fun. If the company had put down an internal fund for this it will also be gone. That leaves us with the government or the landowner to carry these costs. Finally a forest with wind turbines is not a pretty sight. In northern Sweden there is an area called Markengen. They have about 500 turbines there now but the original plan was to have more than thousand. It is an awful sight in my opinion. I have only driven through there in day light but I don’t think it looks better after darkness with a flashing light in top of each of them. It probably looks like an invasion from space by aliens. Then who actually owns this wind farms. In Sweden about 85% of them are owned by foreign investors whereas China’s state owned nuclear company is one of the biggest. Also a lot of these companies have main offices in Luxembourg. Through creative banking and warranty from EU they can then borrow money from banks say in Switzerland at 2% interests rate . The mother company then lend money to the Swedish daughter company at 8% interest rate. As long as the loss in Sweden is not to big they can skim the difference and the company in Sweden avoids tax since it is running with loss. If the loss is too big European taxpayers will eventually have to pay the loan. If you really want to have fossil free energy for the unforeseeable future the only option is nuclear. Unfortunately nuclear energy has got a bad reputation through media that have been more interested in headlines than fact and have used peoples fear of any thing nuclear to promote this. Generation 4 of reactors are probably the safest way of producing energy. It will be a long explanation to tell you why so I leave to that.

Подкрутили рейтинг, чтоб понизить его в удобный момент и преподнести это как сенсацию. В скором будущем этого делать не будут - тогда манипуляция станет очевидной. А значит, что и скорого конца конфликта никто не ожидает, хоть и делаются подобные заявления.

A vibrant summary. Well done!

China's energy consumption has long surpassed Europe. So, the fact that you're talking about energy consumption per capita should've been specified in the title. Also, why is Chinese living standard still bellow Eruope despite this?

Packiestan does not have a "rich" history. It was formed in 1947 forming a nation of converted Desi lower caste Hindus

Cool Video! HI from Adelaide Australia 🇦🇺

Thank you, Diana! My students love your videos!!!

Somehow I did really good on this quiz. Never set foot in or studied about Russia.
