The members of Greenpeace, an international organization of 50 year old kids still living on their Mom's trustfund who have never held a paying job in their lives, announced a new energy plan for Bulgaria today:
Admit that electric heaters don't work!!!!!!
No one seems to have informed Greenpeace that if the gas is shut up because of a dispute with Gazprom - from whom Greenpeace holds a huge marketing contract - that people are not fond of dying in the cold to satisfy the heartfelt principles of people who can fly to Majorca and drink scarce water on the golf course.
http://weblog.greenpeace.org/nuclear-reaction/2009/01/bulgaria_and_slovakia_restarti.htmlSince the members of Greenpeace all live in houses with $5000 gas ranges, they apparently were unaware that electric stoves and electric heaters are well known inventions that have been operational throughout the world for more than half a century.
Quoth the little misinformed yuppie brats:
Nuclear power, as we all know, is used for generating electricity. In Slovakia only about 10 per cent of its gas imports are used for electricity generation (as a by-product of central heating cogeneration not power stations) with the rest used for cooking and heating. Restarting the country’s nuclear reactors is not going to suddenly allow its citizens to have warm houses and hot food.
In Bulgaria only 4 per cent of electricity is generated by gas and only then in times of large demand. Restarting reactors 3 and 4 at Kozloduy would actually produce electricity for which there is no demand.
Um, no demand?
Apparently the little Lord Fauteroy's in the Greenpeace reality perusal squad have not looked at a photograph of Bulgaria's appliance stores:
