The development of sustainable energy on land is at risk of coming to a standstill, according to a mid-year update from the regional energy strategies (RES). The 2030 target of at least 35 terawatt hours (TWh) of renewable energy on land will likely be met. However, the more ambitious goal of 55 TWh is increasingly out of reach.
This is not only on the far-right, but generally on the right spectrum. The People’s Party is more interested in businesses than actually caring for the environment we live in. This could be seen by the name of the ‘Ministry of Climate and Green Growth’. Apart that generally very little is accomplished by this government, I can’t really remember Hermans having any meaningful proposals or implementations, except for scraping those things that were in-place or halting discussions with large corporations on their efforts on sustainability.
The Farmer’s Party has a complete neglect for any climate issues, and, my sense, is that New Social Contract cares less about climate than the People’s Party. And all three of them seem to be willing to give in to Wilders on this front.
