Why Europe’s Green Energy Disaster Should Scare Every Blue State Governor
The EU Is committing economic suicide for the climate change cult.
by Bjorn Lomborg  July 23, 2025, 8:27 AM
 
The European Union is offering Democrat-led states a cautionary tale in how to hamstring an entire economy in the name of green dogma — while failing to solve climate change. [emphasis, links added]


Blue states are sending delegates to Europe to learn how to implement climate policies, egged on by progressive think-tanks. But Europe, which has pursued “green” policies more fervently than even California, is a model of what not to do.

Obstinately placing virtue signaling over common sense, the EU is now promising to cut carbon emissions by 90% in just 15 years. This goes even further than its already foolhardy promise of a 55% cut by 2030.

While Europe knows it has to boost its anemic economic growth, it has consistently prioritized carbon cuts and ever more expensive energy, often through less reliable wind and solar power.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
