Domination of Europe: 

That's great, but oil and gas are the most important export commodities of Norway. The fact that almost all of it is exported is kind of irrelevant. In fact, hypocritical, one might say. They get no brownie points from me for simply not using it. This highlights how minimally sacrificial the move to renewables is for countries who are not large oil and gas producers like the US, Russia, or The Kingdom. And when it is a large part, that's okay, you can just switch to renewables and sell it elsewhere, and then point your finger at the buyers for their love of oil.

Give me a break. How's the view from the cheap seats, Europe?
