On February 23rd, the Bundestag election will take place, and the Green Party has outlined several key successes from their time in government. From kickstarting the Energiewende to implementing social and environmental policies, the Green Party has made significant strides in shaping a more sustainable and equitable future.
One of the primary achievements highlighted is the progress made with the Energiewende, Germany’s transition to renewable energy sources. By the first half of 2024, over 60 percent of the country’s electricity consumption was covered by renewable energies, marking a significant milestone in the fight against climate change.
Additionally, the Green Party has worked on initiatives to support social welfare, such as increasing the minimum wage and introducing the concept of Bürgergeld to promote social inclusion and employment opportunities. They have also been proactive in addressing environmental challenges, with measures to protect forests, promote sustainable agriculture, and reduce air pollution.
Moreover, the Green Party has focused on progressive social policies, including advocating for LGBTQ+ rights, reforming drug laws with the Cannabis-Gesetz, and supporting young entrepreneurs through the Start-up-Strategie. They have also prioritized issues of equality, education, and climate resilience in their governance.
As the Bundestag election approaches, the Green Party’s record of achievements and commitments to sustainability, social justice, and innovation position them as a key player in shaping Germany’s future.
