In a free market. There would be divestment from fossil fuels because it's not profitable at cost. And YOU know THAT. How much war and subsidies and "quantitative easing" do you need?

The thing they won't do is balance the subsidization. Instead of cutting fossil subsidies, they add new subsidies. There should be a gradual balancing of them, then a complete phasing out of them over time. They won't. When the renewables get more subsidies, then the fossils demand more, and they get more, too. Most of the renewable energy companies are owned by fossil fuel companies, so the whole thing is a scam, and you're high if you're ideological about this. It's just greed from people who don't want to work or produce anything for a living.
We can cut subsidies on the grid right now, and we'd be fine. It would be hard for a lot of people at first, but there are solutions right now that can power homes. It would be wise to incentivize homeowners and perhaps create a financing model for us, but we are just citizens who work for a living, and we need to keep propping up the fossil fuel and war companies, so whatever.

words fail me! Arguing with the IMF, the Guardian and the Cato Institute, of all places, speaks for itself. How do you explain the huge success of the German energy transition, in which renewable energies have so far been subsidized to death with trillions of euros and the energy-intensive industry is leaving the country faster than degenerates like Robert Habeck have quietly wished? I assume that you are German and can therefore live quite stably in this green bubble. But neither the earth's resources nor economic principles will be able to be reinterpreted in such a way that your green socialist paradise will appear in the future. And if you still believe in the climate apocalypse, it really is a religious cult for all to see. you have to grow up in Germany, otherwise things will soon look bleak

I think you could do better with your reading and analysis. You just put so many words in my mouth and attributed so many ideas to me that are not mine it is showing that you're not serious about this discussion and you favor a position rather than objectivity. enjoy your subsidized free lunch.

okay you little wise guy. probably from austria, right? it's interesting that people as smart as you, such little commies, don't even know the means by which power is exercised over them. that your climate apocalypse is an instrument to influence your behavior probably never occurred to you, did it? Have fun, read a book!
