They say EU is Environmental Champion. Not really.

They say EU is Environmental Champion. Is it?

Those standing for the EU say that Britain would be worse off and talk about seeking guarantees that once Britain is out of the EU environmental policies will be maintained and promoted. Well, research shows that EU has not been helping the environment but hampering the efforts to protect the environment. In fact, the European Commission has been blocking climate action and making things more difficult for those trying to promote environmental policies.

Fact: Most electricity produced in countries like Germany and Poland is produced with coal. After the nuclear accident in Japan, Germany turned even more to electricity produced using coal. This is the reality, the rest is ill informed political hypocrisy. France, instead, trusts nuclear power and meets most of its needs using nuclear power instead of resorting to gimmicks. 

All countries need a reliable supply of energy and speeches won't do but things can be a lot worse when the EU Commission itself is acting against alternatives to protect the environment.
