New Coalition in Bergen. The new leader of the city of Bergen, Roger Vallhammer, is promising that Bergen will become the greenest city in Norway from now on. All this is the result of creating a new coalition. The coalition in question was created as a result of the merger of the Labor Party, the Christian People's Party, the Green Party and the liberals - Venstre. The implementation of more greenery in Bergen is not the only goal of the newly formed coalition. The city leader also announced that her mission will also be better financial management and maintaining the amount of property taxes at a constant level.
New Coalition in Bergen - emphasis on climate policy ...
One of the main assumptions of the Coalition will also be to put more emphasis on climate policy. The coalition wants to reduce car traffic to make Bergen a greener city. The assumption is that the traffic reduction must be 30% less than it has been so far. This assumption is to be implemented by the end of 2023. According to representatives of the Coalition, it will seek to restore the traffic level from the beginning of 2013. But that's not all. In addition to reducing traffic, the Coalition wants to introduce zones free from cars and vehicles that emit exhaust fumes in the city, which are so harmful to the environment.
Bergen more "green".The coalition in Bergen will take care of the health of the residents
Concern for the health of Bergen's inhabitants in terms of climate is not the only assumption of the Coalition. In addition, she also wants to take care of the health of Bergen's inhabitants in the context of diet. Hence, the idea emerged that at least once a week, in public canteens, a meatless meal consisting only of vegetables or fruit should be served.
Summarizing…
New Coalition in Bergen. As it is clearly seen, the assumptions of the Coalition are commendable. The only question is whether all of the above assumptions will actually be achieved. There is nothing to hide, they are quite demanding when it comes to their implementation. However, will it be possible to introduce all the changes mentioned by the Coalition? How will it work in practice? We will certainly find out about it soon.
