On hunting for alternatives – Der Spiegel:

‘In countries that have long viewed their energy supply as an element of national security instead of seeing it exclusively through the lens of climate policy alone, that path triggered a fair amount of head scratching. An editorial in the Wall Street Journal disparaged Germany as having "the world’s dumbest energy policy."
Until just a few weeks ago, Berlin tended to simply deflect such criticism. But now it is suddenly no longer even certain whether or how people in Germany will be able to heat homes next winter, or how industrial companies will keep their factories running. Federal Economics Minister Robert Habeck of the Green Party is seriously considering banning private households from installing new gas heaters.
Around a quarter of total energy consumption in Germany is currently covered by gas, oil and coal from Russia. But Germany needs to eliminate this dependence as quickly as possible, that much is clear.
The hunt for alternatives has taken on a feverish pace, and no possibilities are being rule out, at least not in the short term, including nuclear energy, coal and liquified natural gas. Habeck has stated that the "emphasis will be on pragmatism and not political considerations." The fact that the Green politician has said he would not "ideologically oppose" further use of nuclear energy is but one indicator of how precarious the situation has become.’

Now, this is really a game changer. Not the extra money for the Bundeswehr.
The polls were clear, Germans suddenly wanted to spend more money on weapons and Scholz, in the best tradition of Merkel, saw an opportunity.

But the Greens, not opposed anymore to nuclear energy, that’s a game changer.
The climate and the environment will have to wait. Putin first.
