And they are still going full bore into "green energy."

Oh well... At least they have reactors. Unlike most European nations.

France is fine but they do like to go on strike and that's the reason for the sortages.

It's not going to be a cold winter becuase the reserves are are topped up so barring nuke strikes we'll be fine.

How about they force their refinery workers back to work or fire them and replace them? 60% of their refinery capacity offline? That will do wonders for their supply.

My life fades. The vision dims. All that remains are memories. I remember a time of chaos, ruined dreams, this wasted land. But most of all, I remember the road warrior, the man we called Max. To understand who he was we have to go back to the other time, when the world was powered by the black fuel and the desert sprouted great cities of pipe and steel — gone now, swept away. For reasons long forgotten two mighty warrior tribes went to war and touched off a blaze which engulfed them all. Without fuel they were nothing. They'd built a house of straw. The thundering machines sputtered and stopped. Their leaders talked and talked and talked, but nothing could stem the avalanche. Their world crumbled. Cities exploded — a whirlwind of looting, a firestorm of fear. Men began to feed on men.
On the roads it was a white-line nightmare. Only those mobile enough to scavenge, brutal enough to pillage would survive. The gangs took over the highways, ready to wage war for a tank of juice, and in this maelstrom of decay ordinary men were battered and smashed — men like Max, the warrior Max. In the roar of an engine, he lost everything and became a shell of a man, a burnt-out desolate man, a man haunted by the demons of his past, a man who wandered out into the wasteland. And it was here, in this blighted place, that he learned to live again.

Grass fields have a higher albedo than forests. So yeah, cutting down the trees is good for the planet.

Which reserves? The Gasiline shortage is result of CGT strike against 3 Total refineries planned at a time of offline capacity (Maint)

Great sponsor - horrid Labor Mgt, but then again it's France

Difficult to go something not French but here ya go

https://www.hydrocarbonprocessing.com/news/2022/10/french-refinery-strikes-are-timed-to-hit-hard

France has enough strategic reserves of oil products to cover average demand for about three months, the UFIP petroleum industry body estimates.

TotalEnergies said it had increased imports and had stocks "that could last between 20 days and a month," in addition to the strategic stocks held by France.

These are refined products

The French are having problems here as well - some poor choices, some bad luck and exterior forces have about half the EDF reactors offline.

Plus some of the Nuke Workers have joined what's becoming a general strike, reducing output even more l.

Then again it's a Thursday in France so. . .
