| #6 With Central Canada and Siberia having colder than usual air in the middle of the year (2022) leading to the 2022-2023 winter cycle. There are a number of Weather Guessers predicting a repeat of the snow and ice storms seen in the 1970's. Right about now, I bet many in the EU are having a change of mind about being an Eco-tree hugger friendly Mother-Earth type, vs having Nuke &/or Coal Power Plants to cool and warm their butts. IF predictions pan out for Winter temps, during the Solar Minimum. There will be a lot of old buildings and sheds looted for burnable fuels? |
