Russia's government gets half of its revenues from oil and gas exports, and the West can't afford not to buy it. The West can't speed the transition to renewables, because it's too costly (but all expenses for war and defense will be paid at all cost, that goes without saying).
- thanatos519 5y agoThe "leadership" of the West can't afford not to buy it for political reasons, but the people can deal with the consequences. I hope that all of those pipelines are destroyed. That will force us to take the transition to renewables seriously. Lots of people will die ... but cold turkey means fewer people will die in the long run.

While it would be great to have a nation of Teslas ran off solar power, that won't happen for decades if ever. What we really need are smaller cities，and better public transit
