Austrian Climate Minister Leonore Gewessler Plans to Challenge EU Restoration Law
Luxembourg Meeting to Discuss Renaturing Legislation
Gewessler to Vote in Favor of Proposal
Austrian Climate Minister Leonore Gewessler has announced plans to challenge the EU Renaturing Law at a meeting with other environmental ministers in Luxembourg on Monday.
Gewessler, a member of the Green party, has indicated that she will support the proposed legislation. The law aims to restore degraded ecosystems and protect biodiversity across the European Union.
The Austrian government had previously expressed concerns about the law, arguing that it could lead to restrictions on economic activities. However, Gewessler has said that she believes the law is necessary to address the climate and biodiversity crises.
The meeting in Luxembourg will bring together environmental ministers from across the EU to discuss the proposed law. A vote on the legislation is expected to take place later this month.
