Climate mania is costing Greek lives
Climate mania imposed by the eco-socialist elites has degenerated into a real drama in Greece, the cradle of Europe.

The alleged climate apocalypse is being touted by the mainstream Greek globalist media as the reason for drastically rising energy prices and thousands of citizens have been left to fend off the cold.
In the capital Athens, in the port metropolis of Piraeus as well as in other large cities, impoverished people are desperately trying to warm their freezing flats at least a little with old wood stoves or even charcoal grills. Often they start fires that eventually lead to fire disasters.
For example, sixteen people died in just one month, from 20 November to 20 December 2021 in such accidents. The youngest were just twelve and thirteen years old.
The reason for the fact that people, in their sheer desperation and fear of dying from the cold, are heating their homes with whatever they can get their hands on, is the drastically increased price of energy.
Natural gas, for example, has risen by almost 200 percent. Electricity has risen by as much as 300 percent. Electricity bills for two months, which normally amount to around 100 euros, are now running up to 300 euros, according to consumer associations. For the four-month final payments, even additional payments of up to 500 euros could be due.
The energy crisis in Europe is being manufactured according to Russian President Vladimir Putin, clearly in a bid to stop Russian gas from flowing through NordStream2. “You see what is happening in Europe. There is hysteria and some confusion in the markets. Why? Some people are speculating on climate change issues, some people are underestimating some things, some are starting to cut back on investments in the extractive industries. There needs to be a smooth transition.”
But the elites have focused on creating a flashpoint in former gas hub, Ukraine, to continue the process of energy inflation. This makes it possible for governments and large corporations to confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of citizens.
Meanwhile, the climate insanity of the German Greens, a party of Davos infiltrators, continue, while literally costing lives in Greece.

The Nordstream II pipeline is the reason for US belligerence toward Russia. It is the reason why average Greeks must freeze in their apartments. Warmongering over Ukraine is merely a cover story; a distraction.
When inexpensive Russian gas starts flowing through the Nordstream II pipeline, there will be an increase in trade between Russia and Europe. Business will be transacted in euros and rubles (not in US dollars). There will be no need for NATO. America’s power in the region will be dramatically reduced.
The USA is desperately trying to prevent this by pounding the war drums about Ukraine.
European politicians go along with this, since they are bribed by the USA, while average Europeans are freezing.
How long can this corruption continue in Europe before it becomes politically unsustainable?
