About this listen
The central theme: the failure of energy policy built on ideology rather than physics and economics, despite noble intentions. This discussion is framed by a Wall Street Journal investigation that detailed how Europe cut emissions faster than anyone else, but at the cost of hobbling its own economy.Key points the episode plans to cover:
- The Warning for America: The host warns that Europe's issues are not a distant problem, but an "early signal" of what happens when governments "substitute aspiration for planning". He states that America is being pushed toward many of the same policies.
- The Promise vs. Reality: The segment begins by contrasting Europe's 20-year promise of a clean, job-creating, cheaper, and world-leading sustainable future with the actual outcomes.
- Today's Analysis: The episode will examine what Europe promised, what it delivered, and the resulting costs—industrially, economically, and politically.
- The Main Lesson: The ultimate goal is to determine what lesson the United States should take from Europe's experience.
