Europe is in an energy crisis, and it’s entirely self-inflicted. Eschewing organic fossil and nuclear sources for green energy, the continent has depended on Russia for more than 40 percent of its natural gas imports, and large portions of its oil and solid fuels needs.<\/p>\n

Now Russia has choked off the supplies of cheap fuels that the continent depended on to run their economies and heat homes. Gazprom for example said the main pipeline carrying gas to Germany would stay closed due to a leak, and claims the problem cannot not be fixed because of ‘sanctions.’<\/p>\n

European leaders say it’s energy blackmail, and analysts predict Europe could face serious electricity shortages as soon as this month. This winter cold weather, low wind generation and cuts in gas could lead to power rationing and blackouts.<\/p>\n

French President Macron has a plan.<\/p>\n

Running Out of Ideas: Macron Pleads with French to Use Less Energy to Avoid Rationing<\/h3>\n

PETER CADDLE<\/strong><\/p>\n

French President Emmanuel Macron has pleaded with the general public to use less energy so that he will not be forced to ration energy.<\/p>\n

France\u2019s embattled President Emmanuel Macron has asked the public to ration their energy use voluntarily, with the head of state claiming that them doing so may avert the need to ration energy officially by government order in the country over the winter months.<\/p>\n

Having previously warned that France was seeing the \u201cend of abundance\u201c, the move appears to be the latest attempt by an embattled Macron to avert a now-probable energy crisis as opponents grow ever more critical of the politician.<\/p>\n

According to a report by Le Figaro, Macron has once again urged \u201csobriety\u201d from his country\u2019s population, saying that individual efforts to use less energy could translate to rationing being unnecessary over the coming months.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe solution is in our hands,\u201d Macron is reported as telling the public, pleading that individuals reduce their energy consumption by \u201cputting the air conditioning a little less strong\u201d and \u201cthe heating a little less strong than usual\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Macron will of course set the example for the French people. Libert\u00e9, \u00e9galit\u00e9, fraternit\u00e9, and all that. Maybe after he asks his Mom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
