Your channel has been a tremendous help for us laymen struggling to comprehend these baffling times. Thanks again.
North Americas’s power grid allows Canada to buy excess solar power from the American south during the day, and the Americans to buy excess Canadian hydro-electric power at night. This interview is spot-on that having a robust continent-wide transmission system is a must, so that excess renewables can be distributed to where they’re needed!
Yes - Texas is not fully synchronized with the rest of the continent. It didn't help them at all a couple Winters ago when their grid collapsed.
@@daniellarson3068 Agreed. It denies Texas the ability to buy excess power when they need it, and denies them the ability to sell excess power when they have it. Ridiculous.
ah yes, the germans should build that high voltage connector to norway to get access to their storage dams.
We can have unicorns fly all that unused excess solar power back and forth.
@@kenkeyes8148 Is the earth 🌎flat? You think? Solar power 🔋is plenty, more than we ever need, just so you know 😉.
Please continue these videos. I would love to hear more on reformation of European governing and international cooperation.
Prof. Stubb, you have turned me into a veritable "Finlandophile" (if such a word exists). Truly grateful for this series, well done.
Fennophile 🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮
@@bunba_77_15 That’s so much better, thank you!
Thank you very much for this series of videos, watched them almost all. Please, if somehow possible, continue to share this infos. Congrats to your production team,
nice light, beautiful framing, lovely colors and contrast and last but not least, high quality sound. Perfect, very well done.
9:00 That Draghi saying came to mind when I started playing the video glad he mentioned it.
Draghi prob wanted to say something a little harsher but he wants to be diplomatic.
Truth is we are fighting a war too even thou not with soldiers. Sooner we realize that sooner the war ends. In the end of the day war is a battle of wills and unity.
If everyone turns off their AC that sends a clear message . If we all act as soldiers this war would have ended long time ago.
Every war is a battle of unity and will.
Europe has huge potential but it seems timid.
This is our big advantage not to fight this war with life's lost , but with an oil and gas embargo.
If we all act as soldiers in our home in our work in our cars , Putin has no chance.
👍🏾👍
Yet in Italy people do not want to give up a single inch of their luxury - they might say they condemn war, but will not act. I hope rising prices will make them do otherwise
@@gabrielecarbone8235 Too many pro-russian talking heads on their national TV
+ they are more dependent on gas than even Germany
Excellent ! Please keep these videos coming.
Energy is THE big topic… Prof. Glachant brought out ‘who pays’ for all the infrastructure…. (I liked that!)particularly in continents like India, South America, and Africa… each with over 1B people. And is everyone entitled to energy grids and infrastructure if they don’t build it themselves. I really liked the idea of the world being so intertwined that it’s impossible to fight one another… like the inside of a golf ball.. however, we are actually seeing that play out now,with this war….. with energy, food and fertilizer shortages having a world wide effect. Another great discussion! PS: in the U.S. we are having food shortages and price hikes on gas almost daily (diesel fuel for trucks is actually going to spike prices of everything further!)There is no question we will go into a deep recession unless our domestic energy production is turned back on. EVERYTHING is tied to energy!
JM a true expert, a true professional, and exceptional human being!
Much more investment and innovation into energy storage batteries urgently needed.

Another good video - I'm becoming convinced the political leaders need some more technical training in the area of energy. This training may help them to make wiser long term decisions. I look at Germany shutting down its nukes and I think someone should have had a very long gentle talk with their Green party. However, experience is the best teacher and if they get their gas shut off and face a cold dark Winter they won't forget it.
Opposition to nuclear power goes well beyond the green party these days in Germany. When Merkel sealed the second nuclear exit after Fukushima the green party was not involved in the government. Also, while I personally think it is a mistake to shut down nuclear before coal and I wish it would run longer, nuclear does not change a lot about German gas dependence. The main issue there is that German heating is not electrified. The state of German gas dependence is a failure across the political spectrum and arguably the greens are least responsible for it.
If we would have smart and fair leaders, we would use more oil and gas until we have REAL replacement for those. Now people are suffering cause the "green" policies. Fortunately I will not have difficulties to buy gasoline for $10/l
What i would say to other countries is, yes we polluted the world, but now are new technologies and you dont need to repeat our mistakes, learn from it. And we should cooperate so everyone has access to new renewable energy.
Great point! Also the western countries use the energy to provide the products and services that the world wants and demands. Those countries just order what they want… that’s the only reason they are not polluting. If they don’t like the carbon output….they don’t have to purchase the products!
Then carbon output goes down. 🌻 Problem solved!
that fact that Jean-Michel had inhale before explaining himself shows how serious things are.
A G A I N S T joining NATO : 1) Joining NATO means to serve as a target for Russia´s or China´s strategic nuclear missilles all the time in future, certainly not just untill Ukraine war would end. 2) USA may back off in case of nuclear war in Europe to save hundreds of their cities- than NATO would loose nuclear war in Europe. 3) USA would appreciate every new NATO land(Finland) to absorb some of Russia´s nukes, which otherwice would probably explode above USA´s cities in case of nuclear war between USA and Russia... 4) Finland managed alone in past, could manage in future. It is still far better option than to be incinereted instead of some USA´s cities one day...USA likes to be nuclear armed nation, on the other hand they can not defend themself against Russia´s nuclear forces, let alone to defend Europe against it! Finland would better to rely on Finish defensive means and not to mess with counting on USA and kind of stand up against nuclear superpowers like Russia and China to "fight" them one day... To "fight" them means - to absorb some of nukes which would otherwise explode above USA´cities very harmlessly for Finland.... 5) Joining NATO is the way how to assure the tottal destructin to Finland during a nuclear war between USA and Russia, or even between European NATO members and Russia... 6) If anybody thinks that USA is a morally "OK" NATO leader- kind of a "good guy" , than please try to google: "USA drone strikes" . You will find horrible crimes committed by USA on civilians including children in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen an other third world countries... 7) Pro NATO propaganda sounds like this: „No NATO country has ever been invaded. “ Russia has not been invaded either. It certainly does not prove, that NATO and Russia will not destroy each other one day without any invasion. 8) In case of nuclear war the destruction would be gruesome, but also very limited geographically to states involved. Joining NATO is possibly signing of a completely unnecesarry death sentence, since it is signing of being targeted by SATTAN II and more of similar machines of death instead of some USA´s mainland, which is warmly welcomed by USA.
I'm sorry but none of that is remotely true?
1) you do know the elite's of Russia have ALL their children living in the west.
2) you fo realise pootie doesn't have a big red button, which means he would be relying on the guys who do turn the 2 keys, killing themselves and their families too.
In other words MAD, and even the Russians realised they went too far threatening nukes..my evidence; China TOLD putin he had to wait till after the winter Olympics in China. so chill out or wind your neck in, it's uncouth.
I'm curious about a potential increase in Canada meeting the energy needs of Europe as Russia is phased out. Germany is already inquiring as such.
That's a good question. Canada didn't succeed in building out pipelines to the west and east coasts: it was too easy to stay addicted to the US market. The other point is that US shale oil has a much lower production and transportation costs than most Canadian sources. Consider too that Canada doesn't own the majority interest in the Canadian oil industry: the Americans do. Add to these factors one final misstep: Canada hasn't developed enough value-added components such as oil refineries. We transport our raw crude - and thousands of potential refinery jobs - to the US where they add the value and make the significant profits. Sad that Canada missed out on such an opportunity, isn't it?
@@hungryghost3260 you made good points there. What you have pointed out together with a lack of preparedness in the Canadian Arctic, I feel Canada needs to do more to capitalize on their capacities. Now and going forward would be an ideal time to do so.
If you can wait for us to build a pipeline to the coast! Just like Germany we have too many lunatic environmentalists!
@@P_Izenberg I agree with you wholeheartedly, sir! Any ideas about how to wake Canada up? 😁
💯
6:31 - 7:27 - 7:40 💯Real Life, unfortunately 💯but can be addressed if the willingness of the people, leaders, politicians, industries, etc are sufficiently there 🌎🌏🌍🙏🏾💯
Thanks! But please EU and US...resend Peter the Great to his epoch with decision...
Europe would love to help more, but when the rest of the world communicates that it gives absolutely no damns about European security, it might just be smarter to increase our own security instead.
Where was Europe's concern when the security of Libya, Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan as well as Vietnam were smashed to pieces? Or do you think this is a one-way street?
Or have you forgotten what NATO did in Serbia and Yugoslavia?
@@mekbebtamrat817 nice try but it was actually only European countries to be against many of those wars, they were even the ones to block usa from taking nato into war in afghasnistan, you re comment is so pathetic and xenophobe, why would you even talk about Vietnam as if your country was against war in Vietnam? absurd. where were you and your countr when russian invaded Georgia??!
@@jh5kl Georgia declared war on Russia. Russua responded.
@@jh5kl where were all the sanctions which even the so-called neutral Switzerland imposed on Russia when US destroyed those countries. They were spreading democracy, right? I do not think I need to point out the hypocrisy much more than this. And you should check out the meaning of the word xenophobe.
5:18 - 5:52 👏🏾 This is an example of Europeans coming to a sovereign conclusion without none European influences💙👏🏾this idea took longer than one would think to mainstream one of the more obvious ideas, but better late than never🙏🏾this all we need as proof for the rest of the west to help facilitate this sovereign/authentic/genuine idea ! Let’s initiate implementation🙌🏾💯🙏🏾🇺🇸! Now it’s time for the European leaders and public to take action ! Contact i.e. departments/etc such as the state department to contact leaders such as but not limited to Antony Blinken to effectively facilitate getting the ball rolling in this regard .. we can work on this while we help our friends/families across the pond and beyond with mitigating their direct impacts on the global food situation. Let’s move!! Things in the background can be facilitated in regards to Finland, Sweden, Turkey, etc as well. Progress can move simultaneously. No need to do one than the other, as long as the will is there we have the resources to work on multiple fronts simultaneously in this regard 🌍🌏🌎
Is there anyone that can share a solution and a plan to solve our long-term problems with energy in EU?
Any chance of captions on the videos?
Turn on CC in upper right corner
I believe people thought the same thing about interdependancy in regards to trade before the first world war. That it would make war impossible. I guess anything can happen
I watch all of your video's. All of them are top! Unfortunately, this one was very hard for me to follow; Jean Michwel (person you interview) is very hard to understand. The way he talks, is almost impossible for me to follow. I miss the sub titles... Or, perhaps my English is too poor ....
I do have to agree on all points you’ve made. I remembered 1/2 way through about turning on CC in upper right corner. Still ….. not as impressive as other interviews/videos from this channel. I have very much enjoyed listening these past few weeks!
A transcript would be helpful.

12:03 - 12:23 oof facts, but again this current Russian war might spark a willingness to make collective efforts to integrate, innovate, advance, etc our societies/people/etc in ways we could not have realistically hoped for before Putin’s invasion of Ukraine and the destabilizing domino effects that came afterward .. there are time limits that we can act to optimize the opportunities for initiating these changes in public/private/gov/etc willingness to collectively work together for the better… if waiting until it’s too late and the conflict has ended, then the special interest lobbyists will surely work in their best special interests that benefit their bottom lines rather than being willing to make collective efforts for the better basically solely due to a crisis such as Russia-Ukraine-Global Food supply-etc
12:03 - 13:02 - 13:24💯 REAL LIFE 💯an unfortunate truth 💯
can you please comment on Putins last reunion with Russians entrepreneurs ?
I think he is comparing to Peter the Great
I think I missed something. Off to work now…
imposing a tax on Russian oil would simply increase the final price for the European consumer. It is absurd to assume that Russia will simply pay the money to the EU budget.
Prices speak.
It's a transitional stage to encourage consumers to use less energy so that they are more prepared if rationing starts
It lacks captions!
youtube has to generate them and can take hours to days.
🇺🇲🇺🇦❗The people and government of Ukraine, led by President Zelensky, must decide for themselves the question of the possibility of territorial concessions, said US Secretary of State Blinken.
According to the head of the State Department, the United States does not intend to impose its position.
It should be noted that the topic of the loss of territories by Ukraine to end the war is increasingly debated by the leaders of the European Union.
Honest guy.

9:12 - 10:19 - 12:05 it’s a choice, that we can help each other through the processes… whether it’s America, European Union, Canada, Mexico, African Union, Nigeria, Ethiopia, Egypt, etc… it can be done, but lobbyists have a significant influence of whether or not it will be done in a timely fashion, unfortunately. Lobbyists in America can be out of control, the same can be said in Europe obviously. Although European Union has proven they can take action for the betterment of the systems/processes/etc such as but not limited to what they did with one of our American companies, Apple charging ports… it definitely hurts our GDP in America, but it’s a decision that is an attempt to standardize in a way that has a none negative impact on the environment, raw materials, etc. That is proof that decisions can be collectively made in regards things such as but not limited to i.e. energy/etc in European Union, United States, etc … even when special interest groups may not have what is collectively best for our people/planet/etc.. France blocking energy transports from Spain into and through France May change considering the current situations in Russia/Ukraine/Europe and around the world. Now is the time to act or forever hold your peace(aka wait until the next crisis occurs whenever that is.. to push collective actions for the betterment of our tightly linked/interwoven/etc people/societies/planet/etc through Europe, America, etc)

Nuclear and hydroelectric power were fairly "green" as far as emissions are concerned. And would alleviate the problem of overpriced oil in the hands of dictators. Cue in certain "environmentalists"...
Early comment below (and several good replies entered) by Ian Siow is very important, but I would want to see comprehensive analysis of who truly had the moral high-ground. In the case of Soviet Union come Ruzzia, I look to "Red Famine" by Anne Applaebaum and "Winter Is Coming" by Garry Kasparov (world chess champion from Russia). Kasparov foretold the grim future quite exactly as we behold it today.
Once I assimilated the history lessons, and recognize the secret machinations in the Ruzzian Empire, I can not find moral high-ground with Putin or his sycophant followers. In the end, he wants a structure based in applied Evil in service of his exalted glory over the entire earth. He finds support because many people can not invest themselves in offering a moral example - they perpetually disguise secret machinations within their own minds, and do not make general effort to help innocent people become truly strong in mind and kharma. Instead, they foster a world of secret machinations, and devise systems for feeding on the productive innocent sectors. Once becoming perverse this way, propaganda is the leading tool of communication toward the general masses. It is a complex problem, sorting good versus evil, but if we can't uphold reliable landmarks, we are doomed. Evil machinations hold the initiative, intending to catch you confused and impotent.
If the world finally has language and politics for exposing Evil, every move to save innocents is a valid move - even by hypocrits. If we don't potently wield such language and tools, then why can't we? Is all leadership fundamentally corrupt? What about an artificial intelligence in role of the leadership mentality? It needs to be given a try, as soon as possible, just to see if evil becomes weakened. And the code needs to be open source, open review, and fully insulated from tampering.
I can barely understand the hon hon hon hon you've invited.
This so far ignores the humble bicycle. Oulu is a town in north Finland which leads the world with riding bicycles, including in winter. This promises to reduce air pollution in cities and reduce demand for Russian oil and gas. But seeing a massive increase in the number of people riding bicycles in short time, this is the nightmare of conservatives, not just the utopian dream of liberals. So it will be hard to make happen this summer, this... winter.

Honestly, not very taken back by this guy. I feel this guy is out of touch with the world and reality.His answer is taxing russian gas from the beginning.
I feel like he's giving a lecture from the 1980's. Just need a little more of Macron's whispering into Putin's 👂
Germany made a terrible mistake by closing most of its nuclear power plants this year. Renewable cannot compensate that, instead it has to buy more coal and gas.
On the contrary the over-production of renewables made it necessary to close nuclear power plants.
Why USA buy Russia Alaska
As Russia was selling
If America had just let Germany turn on Nord 2 there would have been no problem worldwide as they would be calling the shots.
Ukraine is facing a grim Winter. Will Europe start making louder noises to throw Ukraine under the bus to make pink peaceniks in Western Europe feel good about themselves?

There are more than enough European nukes. Thanks for your concern! 🙏

Really, tax is a solution? He wants European customers pay even more for fuel.
nothing comes without a price. Not even freedom. They gave the answer at the very beginning: it's a geopolitical war and energy is being weaponized. 'Fuel' the aggressors and destroy Ukraine by whining about fuel prices. We (Europeans) are used to receiving great returns on our investments, this time sth else is at stake and if we just think 'cost' we fuck up big time.
How is taxing European consumers change Russian war?
Russia will make even more money from gas and oil!
The problem in this world is that capitalists think money solves everything included ethnic and cultural tensions. How arrogant.
Europe should stop depending on the US for security. NATO should be disbanded and replaced
The US should remain non-aligned except for defense garuantees to SMALL countries like Taiwan and those in the Baltic, with small populations that make every additional troop very valuable.
Happy with how the war is progressing are we? Starving millions in Africa, breakdown in the global economy? Are you really looking at this conflict through the same rubric or is it beginning to fracture?

Finland would better to rely on Finish defensive means and not to mess with counting on USA and kind of stand up against nuclear superpowers like Russia and China to "fight" them one day... To "fight" them means - to absorb some of nukes which would otherwise explode above USA´cities very harmlessly for Finland.... 5) Joining NATO is the way how to assure the tottal destructin to Finland during a nuclear war between USA and Russia, or even between European NATO members and Russia... 6) If anybody thinks that USA is a morally "OK" NATO leader- kind of a "good guy" , than please try to google: "USA drone strikes" . You will find horrible crimes committed by USA on civilians including children in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen an other third world countries... 7) Pro NATO propaganda sounds like this: „No NATO country has ever been invaded. “ Russia has not been invaded either. It certainly does not prove, that NATO and Russia will not destroy each other one day without any invasion. 8) In case of nuclear war the destruction would be gruesome, but also very limited geographically to states involved. Joining NATO is possibly signing of a completely unnecesarry death sentence, since it is signing of being targeted by SATTAN II and more of similar machines of death instead of some USA´s mainland, which is warmly welcomed by USA.
are you on drugs? ask putin that
The best way for you to show the world and to teach the world how bad Russia is, that you show us the Finnish Constitution and the economic development of Finland under the 100-year Finland was under the Russian rule. If you don't show the world that, you will come across as a liar of great proportions. It is up to you.
(US) United States call it "Liberation" instead of "Invasion". That was what US call it in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Somalia and the list goes on... Why the double standard? Confused... Please enlighten. Genuine question...

true and irelevent. russia is agressor and us wrongdoing doesn't make it right. And its about time to set example for future. Enough agressions.
The main difference is if you end with one country or two.
Liberation - invade, appoint a government from within the country who trades favourably with you, allows your military bases, etc. Impose some form of democratic election as mode of succession with pre-defined terms (how long between elections)
--- vs
Invasion - invade, administer the country directly through an appointed military leadership or government. Invasion involves hegemony, or being integrated into an empire, union. Invader chooses if, when, and to whom succession occurs.
Confused? So confused that you have no idea what you are talking about. The Ukrainian people do not want the Russians, who are waging cultural genocide because Putin doesn't believe the Ukrainians exist as a people. The US never thought the people of any of those countries needed to be eliminated.
@@stischer47 systematic targeting of civilian people and non-military infrastructure .. I agree with you that the events in Ukraine are more than an invasion. There is weaponization of the mass displacement of people, and destruction for the purpose of destruction
Please explain how this laundry basket of yours lasers a useful solution to the pressing problem of European enslavement to Russia’s oil, gas, & coal. Which directly funds Putin’s bloody war against Ukraine?
