The Not-so-Hidden Energy Crisis

Mark Moss, this week’s Wiggin Sessions guest, explains that the current policies the natterers in Glasgow have passed have already created a global energy crisis. You can see the not-so-hidden results at your local gas station, where prices have surged nearly 40% since January. Or consider natural gas prices, which have doubled since the start of the year. And if you use heating oil, expect to see your bill increase 33% this winter. Things are even worse overseas. “Energy prices are going up in Europe,” Mark tells me, “800% on natural gas, 400% on electricity.” He adds, “It’s definitely a manmade crisis.” The only reason these shortages exist is “because of policies that were put in place.”
