And is there a sense that what is happening right now is putting more pressure on European leaders to intensify negotiations around climate, climate action, or to do something substantive about this?

Gasoline, diesel, this winter's electricity bills are going to be absolutely through the roof for many reasons -- because of the pandemic and because of the war in Ukraine, and Russian, you know, energy supplies.

汽油、柴油,这个冬天的电费绝对会涨到屋顶,原因有很多——因为疫情,因为乌克兰的战争,还有俄罗斯的能源供应CIVYFuaL!abU@~oCK

But at the same time, the Europeans and Britain have made, like, really ambitious promises about going to, you know, net zero in their economies by 2035, 2045, 2050.

The leaders here are wary of these high energy prices and high inflation, but they also made big, bold promises to do a great energy transition towards greener and more sustainable, and they're going to get increasingly stuck between these two positions as it gets hotter, as there are more days just like today, a frypan.

这里的领导人对高能源价格和高通货膨胀持谨慎态度,但他们也做出了巨大的、大胆的承诺,要实现能源的伟大转型,朝着更环保、更可持续的方向发展,随着天气越来越热,他们逐渐被困在这两个位置之间,因为像今天这样炙热的日子越来越多了phQ[1tkQ|LYq

So, Tony, as we are all seeing headlines that are really scary from around the world and here in the U.S. when it comes to extreme heat, wildfires, how much climate conditions are getting worse, what has been happening in the U.S. in terms of climate policy and attempts to take action to try to do something?

You know, once upon a time, Democrats hoped that they were going to use their rare majorities in control of the House and Senate and the control of the White House to push forward the most ambitious climate agenda that we've ever seen.

And since then, however, the fighting between Democrats, largely folks in the party and Senator Joe Manchin, have scuttled a lot of those hopes.
