Sun and wind instead of fracking or putin’s gas

The old energy carriers are still greatly overheard

Germany is from putin’s gas as dependent on putin of german money and the german economy. A sharp sanction course against russia ukraine policy is not possible because putin otherwise gave us the gas tap, it’s been in berlin. So we can not risk a gas war with russia. It was obvious to force the energy transition with domestic sun, domestic wind, domestic bioenergy, domestic hydropower and domestic earth warmth. The solution is right in front of the home tour.

But instead, in berlin is increasingly another "solution" discussed, who wanted to really do anyone before a year ago: gas extraction by fracking. So by pressing chemistry water cocktails in the earth.

Not only CDU politicians such as deputy chairman michael fuchs and CSU politicians like peter ramsauer favor the fracking option, also energy minister sigmar gabriel shows itself since the latest "interested", "you have to re-judge this" he is quoted in the taz.

But the experiences in the US and canada with fracking are not mandatory. Sample bores, the construction of the infrastructure, as well as necessary connections to the gas network make it clear that even in about ten years only small shares of german gas consumption could be replaced by shale gas. The very rough enthusiasm for fracking is already sunbosed in the USA.

The cute realization: fracking is not worthwhile.

Foreign investments in schiefergas and schieferol are broken by more than 80% between 2011 and 2013. Rough US fracking companies are superb. Environmental protection warn worldwide in front of the dangers for the groundwater, especially in densely populated countries like germany. Fracking is complicated, expensive and not environmental contract.

Therefore, the management board of the munchner ludwig-bolkow foundation, werner zittel, also convinced that fracking is not a real alternative to russian gas. The amount of claimant in this country, so zittel, hardly fell into weight, highly a percent.

The domestic renewable energy carriers, which are indispensable to us infinitely, environmentally friendly and cost-effective, are attributed at the moment in berlin and brussel irresponsibly, while the old energy carrier is still greatly excited.
