„Industry is the biggest emitter of greenhouse gases in Austria. So it’s vital that all medium to large companies take action to reduce their high level of emissions quickly. On the one hand, this means harnessing all the potential available to save energy and focusing their investment plans on a switch to climate-friendly technologies. On the other, of course, they’ll need the right general political framework. Efforts to expand renewable energy in an eco-friendly way must be stepped up and green gas reserved primarily for the processes that need it. As far as heating buildings is concerned, we should abandon gas boilers without delay. We now need legislation on this. We’ll only be able to deliver prosperity and protect the environment at the same time if we have an autonomous, climate-friendly and environmentally compatible energy supply.“
