So that's a net zero. Not looking towards renewable energy is being tone-deaf.
The sanctions are not on oil and gas. I don't think the US stopping imports of Russian oil will affect coal. We will just get oil from someone else and someone else will get the Russian oil, it's a global market.

All the calls for more renewable energy are completely tone-deaf. While it can make sense over the long term, it will do absolutely nothing to help this crisis. For right now we need to swap foreign fossil fuels for domestic fossil fuels. We need to do everything in our power to bring down the global price of oil, that's what will really hurt the Russians and it will reduce the funding we are providing the Russians for their war.

How long is long term. We have known and had these problems for decades!!!
This.
Depends how renewable technology advances. Many of the issues have been helped by fracking and increased domestic supply.
How long is not the question we should be asking when we need a solution today. I'm sure renewables will be the overwhelming majority of global energy in the future, but we need a solution to cut Russia off from its massive cash supply ASAP.

ETA The same goes for the environmentalists who fight tooth and nail against NG and are then shocked that we still use coal.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Both are true. Renewable energy is a great long term goal. Forcing it when we are not yet ready for it brought Europe to where it is now. It is not a solution to the current issues right here and now.

See how I made peace here?

Shout out to the administration under whose watch Russia bought a controlling portion in US uranium producers.

Speaking for myself, I would be okay with paying higher prices at the pump if it means placing meaningful sanctions on Russia. Would still want to see the US urgently return to energy independence.

I have no issue paying higher prices. The problem is those that can' afford it. I have a friend with a trucking company. He has short haul contracts that extend to the end of July. His breakeven gas price is $4. He does not know if he will survive.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/nazism-is-born-in-silence-zelensky-urges-jews-to-shout-against-russia/ar-AAUvvVy?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531

“I am now addressing the Jews of the world: don’t you see what is happening?” Zelensky asked. “That is why it is very important that millions of Jews around the world do not remain silent now.”

“Nazism is born in silence,” he warned, “so shout about the killing of civilians, of Ukrainians.”

Agree with him, also happy he didn't meaninglessly invoke the Holocaust

I'll share one crazier thing with you. I'm aware of some trucking contracts that are not specifying a hard price point and are giving themselves the option to raise the rate after the contract is completed pending fuel and labor costs.
At this point clients are accepting crazy contracts like this because they're so desperate for transportation.
It's happening in the food industry as well.

The ocean freight industry has always basically been like this, more so the last couple years.

Their market and the ruble are in trouble. Only time will tell what effect the sanctions have.

Their economy is fine. The Moscow stock exchange hasn't fallen a single point since they were thrown off Swift. 😜
