Elders: respect us, because we are wiser than you

Also elders: let's put this baby in a sling for maximum momentum

Because of enormous amount of effort in a really short time. It's literally cost billions. And we all know we should have done it years ago with how dangerous and volatile russia is, but we didn't and it's costing countries and families. It's a price most of us are willing to pay, amd we understand the absolute necessity, but to say things are no problem is a lie.

Jfc do you not have google? Russia has about 14% of the world's gas supply. That's an insane amount. Look at the size and placement of russia on a map and you'll se why they have these resources. It would take you 5 minutes to google. The reason we didn't start off with numbers is that we expect people to have this basic knowledge. Even my 13 year old knows this.

Is this a joke? This has to be a joke.

No, it's not necessary. Unless you want affordable energy prices. For decades we made ourselves increasingly dependent on russian energy. It will take time and sacrifice from all of us to change that. One consequence is that people will have trouble warming up their homes in winter. So no, it's not necessary if you're okay with the fact that the poor WILL struggle and some will die.
