The extreme summer heat has caused great havoc in large parts of Europe, and now the European Commission is sounding the alarm that the situation is urgent. One of the biggest issues before the election in September is climate policy. Per Bolund (MP) and Martin Kinnunen (SD) meet in a climate debate, where we get answers to the different parties’ positions and what proposals there are for an improved environment.
Bolund and Kinnunen disagree about how we should stop climate change, and how we should lower electricity prices in the near future.
– What we are proposing is to lower the tax directly aimed at those who live in rural areas and have no alternatives, it is a much more efficient way of using our tax funds, says Per Bolund (MP).
Kinnunen also comments on the autumn electricity prices and the Green Party’s energy policy.
– It is a destructive energy policy that has been carried out in Sweden and in Germany and in many other countries in Europe, and the common denominator for this is the Social Democrats in collaboration with the Environmentalists. It is a policy for higher electricity prices and more manufacturing abroad, says Martin Kinnunen (SD).
