The Great Reset - Europe Is So Screwed Part 3

Recap
In the previous two segments I talked about the expanding energy crisis in Europe, which continues to get worse.  Just last week Germany was forced to close two steel plants due to the skyrocketing cost of energy.  As reported previously, fertilizer, glass, aluminum and chemical production have already been curtailed or shutdown.  www.wsj.com/articles/arcelormittal-closes-two-steel-plants-amid-european-energy-crisis-11662136823

Mega-Drought In Europe
In addition to the energy crisis, Europe is now experiencing the worst drought in 500 years.  Food production is being seriously impacted by:

• Shortages of synthetic fertilizer (their fault)
• Shortages of diesel for farm equipment (their fault)
• Anti-agriculture policies from 'Green' governments (their fault)
• Drought

Large, important rivers have become so depleted that barge traffic has been halted in many locations and electric production has been reduced at nuclear power plants in France due to a lack of cooling water. (click the pics for the story)

The drought is extensive and even affects the Nordic countries which primarily rely on hydro. Europe is so screwed.  Climate Crazies are losing their (very small) minds.  Click the pic.

Climate Change?
This has nothing to do with CO2. (oh that rhymes).

Europe experienced a period of heat and drought in the 1530s-1540.  This corresponds to a period of increased sunspot activity (and warming) that occurred in the middle of the Little Ice Age in between the Spörer Minimum (1450–1540) and the the more severe Maunder Minimum (1645–1715).  www.britannica.com/science/Little-Ice-Age#ref1111894

There was a drought (less severe) in Europe just a few years ago so the Climate Hysterians are claiming that two droughts in the span of just a few years is an unprecedented trend due to Climate Change. Which is total bullshit.

Despite appearances, the European mega-drought in 1540 was substantially worse than the current drought and lasted for an entire decade.  Please keep in mind that the population of the entire planet was less than 500 Million in 1540 and is almost 8 BILLION today.   The amount of water being sucked out of rivers and reservoirs  for irrigation, industry, hot showers and flushing toilets is 100X greater now.

The current drought is, indeed, serious.  Water levels have dropped so low that ancient 'Hunger Stones' have been revealed. These stones are carved warnings about impending starvation and death if the stones are exposed. The stone in the following picture is dated from an earlier mega drought in 1161... about 400 years earlier than the terrible drought of 1540.

It appears that these droughts have occurred in Europe every 400-500 years... long before humans discovered fossil fuels. In spite of historical evidence, Progressive media insists it is due to man-made Climate Change. (click the pic).

The extended winters and cold, wet summers that persisted for almost 300 years during the Little Ice Age caused crop failures, famine and plagues.  Though the drought of 1540 was horrific, it was followed by a period of relative warmth that lasted for more than a generation.

Conclusion
Europe is a mess and it is mostly their fault. The United States should learn from Europe's Green Energy disaster and reject the Green New Deal.  The United States has abundant energy resources that can insure a prosperous, gradual transition to alternative, reliable energy.

Please watch the 2-minute video with Piers Corbyn, an accomplished astrophysicist and meteorologist. I know he speaks the truth because Wikipedia calls him a Climate Denier.  LOL.
