I recall Germany's oldest paper mill shut down due to outrageous energy costs.
Tbf paper is a difficult business to be in right now.
I've heard of mills having to switch over to cardboard (fewer letters, more Amazon boxes) or give up. many in the US shutdown, too, and often this was celebrated because they're smelly eyesores.
