The president proposed a referendum question: ‘Are you in favour of a climate policy that has led to an increase in the cost of surviving of citizens, energy prices and economical and agricultural activities?”. The request for a referendum was rejected by most votes. The Senators argued that the question was formally flawed (they considered it a political thesis, not neutral inquiry). 95 senators took part in the vote. 48 votes of support were needed to adopt the draft referendum.
Green Deal is simply a European Union plan to accomplish climate neutrality by 2050. It is implemented, among others, by reducing CO2 emissions, investments in renewable energy sources and changes in agriculture. The subject is very emotional. On Wednesday, the European Green Deal was protested by trade unionists from NSZZ Solidarity, farmers and workers of various sectors of the economy affected by EU regulations.
