It's easy to make broad vague philosophical promises.
They are meaningless without a plan, legislation, and a budget.
How many empty promises have we heard from various politicians with zero follow-through? When will we learn to tune-out this political BS?
- cmarschner 7y agoIt is completely in line with the plans and roadmap of the EU comission about an EU green deal, for which concrete programs, money allocation etc. exists; Climate policy is hard - it‘s always easier to call for exploiting external costs for short-term GDP gain. Yet it is good to see that there is a critical mass of sustainability policies in the EU. It is our only way to survive.
- koheripbal 7y agoSomething that is "in line" with a funded program, is not itself funded. It's not PART of the EU Green Deal. Moreover, the EU Green Deal is a PROPOSAL. It itself has not passed nor has it received any funding. Look at the timeline here... https://ec.europa.eu/info/strategy/priorities-2019-2024/european-green-deal_en https://ec.europa.eu/info/strategy/priorities-2019-2024/euro... Again, people are praising and being praised for programs and plans that don't exist. This constant political circlejerk that never seems to culminate in real action.
