>the public sentiment forced her hand after Fukushima though

I wonder how many people died in Fukushima vs how many Ukrainians were killed by Russian soldiers this year.



The problem for Germany, and Europe more broadly, is that nuclear power stations don't create natural gas.

Electricity and natural gas aren't interchangeable commodities, particularly given Germany's infrastructure.


They can be used to create hydrogen however which can substitute for many energy uses that currently consume natural gas.

Also Europe produces a lot of electricity with natural gas fuelled turbines.


Or vs how many people die every day due to German coal plants :(


I fail to see the correlation. Blaming Germany for everything is becoming a tiresome meme.
