Yesterday, President Trump released a video showing the first strike.

When asked if he will release the video showing the second strike, he said he would and signaled his continued support for the operations.

Embrace the green energy transition and virtually everyone would benefit.

Citizens would have green jobs and cheap and abundant solar and wind energy alongside a sharp reduction in carbon emissions.

But roughly two decades on, that promise hasn't played out.

Carbon emissions are down, but Germany, for example, now has the highest electricity prices in the developed world.

Journal reporters Tom Fairless and Max Colchester have been digging into the consequences of the green energy transition.

Tom, Max, thanks for joining.

Can you give us a bit of a backdrop of how we got here?

Your story mentions that the green energy transition in Europe has crippled consumers and been damaging for industries.

Can you give us some examples of how that's played out?

I think it's always very easy to look back at situations like this in retrospect and think about the ways that things could have been done differently.

What was another alternative that the continent could have pursued?

So then what is the landscape right now?

Are we seeing net zero projects being scrapped entirely or where do people think things head from here?

That's The Journal's Tom Fairless and Max Colchester.

Thanks both.
