Das Ja von @lgewessler zum EU-Renaturierungsgesetz ist vorbildlich, weitblickend und eine wichtige Entscheidung für die Natur sowie die Krisensicherheit Österreichs. Die geplante Verordnung stärkt die Artenvielfalt, den Klimaschutz und die Ernährungssicherheit. #RestoreNature

Österreich wir morgen den #ReNaturierungsgesetz zustimmen. Es ist das wichtigste Gesetz auf Europa Ebene um die #Artenvielfalt und damit unser #Überleben zu erhalten. Danke für deine Klarheit @lgewessler ! @gruenewien
Ohne intakte #Natur gibt es kein gesundes und glückliches Leben. #Naturschutz sichert unsere Zukunft. Das sind wir den nachfolgenden Generationen schuldig. Genau deshalb haben wir intensiv nach einer Lösung beim #Renaturierungsgesetz gesucht und sie gefunden. (1/2)
