On Tuesday Finance Minister Josef Pröll presented the budget for the years 2009 and 2010.
Here is an excerpt from the online standard and then a small brain Fuck me for the Environment Ministry of Budget ...
"The environmental budget increases this year of 533 million euros (2008) to 825 million, in 2010 it's back slightly to 790 million. 100 million are in total for the thermal rehabilitation (building insulation) is provided, air- and energy fund worth a total of 150 million (half of the Ministry of Environment, Ministry of Transport half), 89 million are for purchases of carbon credits from overseas projects planned - all of which Environment Minister Nicholas Berlakovich expected both environmental and labor-market effects ".

'm So yes, "but" what climate protection technology, in Austria? Well, climate protection is technically said yes so easy. Whether these measures are the right ones and whether they are enough, this is the probably the more important question. So the eco-budget increase in comparison to the year 2008, I guess, 40%, but is this enough? Enough for the next Kyoto or climate change targets that are veraussichtlich negotiated in December 2009 in Copenhagen?
The so should not only do I doubt it. But well, the time of economic crisis, with all its implications it brings with it seems, anyway probably not the best time to talk about the "luxury" of climate protection. But, the next generation of more money and enough time can the climate problem, that our past and current generation / s triggered to solve?
Ah, I can see. I put too many questions, and I hardly answers. And sustainable turnkey installations, which I hope from this budget, I hope, mind you, not only on the environment. Of course, I have issues like education, a modern, sustainable economic system, social system, work, and who knows what else, just as important. Interest to do I hold especially for the environmental aspects. But ... somehow I have realized that if I am already so bring a budget publication to brood ...
I think I would be repealed in politics is not quite right ... :) I would simply not enough Annoy me over 3 National President of annoying and certainly not procrastinate the climate issue before me have.
