EU Better Hope Global Warming Is Real As NatGas Withdrawals Begin With Dangerously Low Reserves
European natural gas futures climbed for a second day as countries began drawing on stockpiles already at exceptionally low seasonal levels.
Brussels is now left hoping that Greta Thunberg's global warming narrative is real to ease pressure on the region's fragile energy balance. Even then, one or two severe cold snaps could accelerate inventory depletion, intensify competition for LNG cargoes and push the energy-stricken continent toward another winter crisis, particularly if disruptions around the Strait of Hormuz continue to constrain LNG supplies.

Shruti Suresh, from the independent watchdog Global Witness, told those in attendance that if they wanted to effect change, they should protest against Jackdaw and the Rosebank oilfield project. The message was so well understood that it didn't need labouring. The mood in the room when the news came in was one of audible dismay. People had just watched the minister for climate transition declare that she could see the challenges ahead and was ready for them. The Jackdaw announcement will face immediate protest and le...
