As the first federal state, Vienna is likely to receive its own climate law this year. As Mayor Michael Ludwig, the responsible city councilor Jürgen Czernohorszky (both SPÖ), and Deputy Mayor Christoph Wiederkehr (NEOS) explained at a press conference on Tuesday, the state parliament should pass the corresponding resolution in the spring.
Vienna Climate Law
Part of it includes, among other things, an update of the Vienna Climate Plan at least every five years, climate checks for laws, regulations, and construction projects of the city, as well as a firmly anchored climate budget. The self-binding law serves as a guarantee for compliance with climate goals - even beyond legislative periods, as was emphasized. "With this, we oppose the climate protection cutbacks at the federal level and take an important step to maintain our quality of life despite the climate crisis and to create legal certainty for companies," said Czernohorszky.
