    Well, except that there are plenty of sources of renewable energy that neither depend on wind or the sun. And a well isolated home needs only minimal heating anyways.

      And which exactly provide enough energy to power an entire country?

        Its a mix from various sources and energy saving efforts. Its not like natural gas is providing the entire energy needs of Europe either.

      Sure, but creating the infrastructure to tap into these energy sources takes a long term commitment, and a lot of energy. Europe is clearly isn’t capable of committing to such a project, and now it lacks the energy needed to do so.
