When the US got on with fracking for gas it was not in any climate agreement, the change from coal to gas reduced CO2 emissions. At the same time Germany was signed up to reduce CO2 emissions, went for Wind and Solar, disrupted their grid, turned off Nuclear and missed their carbon reduction targets. Germany is current opening mines for Brown coal, the worst one for pollution and building power plants to use it.South Africa is exporting large amounts of coal to Europe for power plants and being paid to reduce their own CO2 emissions at the same time. At the COP26 UN climate conference in Glasgow when a group of rich countries — the UK, Germany, France and the US — as well as the EU banded together to pledge $8.5bn to help South Africa shift from coal.Virtue seeking seems to result in the exact opposite happening to that intended.
