In the future, Minister of Agriculture Norbert Tettschnig will also be responsible for environmental and climate protection. One of his first laws will be the new Climate Act. His predecessor, the former Minister of Climate Protection Leonore Gewessler, finds the projects of the new government “frightening” – this has “no plan”.
“In the coming months it is very important for me that we will get there,” said ORF in the “ZIB2” because you had to achieve the climate goals in 2030. The law has been developed about the experience of the Climate Protection Act in Germany and also the city of Vienna. He is a concern “that in the future we clearly regulate the responsibilities of the individual ministers and: what work you have to do to achieve goals”.
Gewessler: “No plan to print climate problems”
However, his predecessor can apparently be less concise: “It is frightening how little ambition and clarity the new government shows in terms of climate protection,” Gewessler complains in a broadcast. She confirmed that “there is no plan about how the urgent climate problems in Austria should be tackled”.
“Climate protection demolished to the appendix of agriculture”
The green ex-minister is moved that climate protection is divided into three departments. This would “withdraw the subject from the appendix of agriculture,” she regretted. She also criticized that on the
Soil protection is not mentioned any measure. “It is clear that climate protection is no longer a priority for this government,” said Gewessler. The responsibility would be weakened that concrete measures would be missing, and the urgent required ambition will fall along the road.
Promises “transparent process”
In the “ZIB2” on Friday promised murder to create “corresponding structures, accompanied by a scientific advisory board” to achieve the climate goals. The public must also open a way to participate, said murder without becoming concrete. “In general, a transparent process must be guaranteed to successfully implement the Austria climate course in the coming years.”
