The Greens and the Economy relationship status complicated

Status: 11.06.2021 5:19 p.m.

For a long time eco-party and industry could not go together. In the meantime, both sides have grown closer. But the relationship remains difficult: many companies are critical of the election manifesto. By Björn Dake, ARD capital studio Leuna Chemical Park in Saxony-Anhalt. Robert Habeck is standing on a construction site wearing a white hard hat. A new system for epoxy resin is being built here – including for wind turbine rotor blades. The Green boss listens with interest and keeps asking questions. As a farewell, the boss of the chemical park operator Infraleuna, Christof Günther, gives him a book and says: “We would of course be happy if you might honor us again in a different role.” The chemical industry is looking for contact with the Greens. Who knows if they won’t be in the federal government in a few months and Habeck will be a minister?

End of an enmity

Habeck is still party leader of the Greens alongside Annalena Baerbock. And as such, he seeks proximity to industry: “Chemistry has to become climate-neutral. The best way to do that is to talk to chemistry.” When visiting the election campaign in Leuna, there was no sign of fear of contact. Not anymore, as Habeck emphasizes: “The old hostility, greens and chemistry, where it used to be said: Close everything so that the environment is clean – it has long since become a constructive, creative, searching relationship with one another.”

Lobbyists are lining up

Dieter Janecek is responsible for this relationship. He is the industrial policy spokesman for the Green parliamentary group in the Bundestag. As the MP from Munich reports, the lobbyists are standing in line with him. Almost 50 percent of the election campaign dates are company visits. Many companies also wanted to show what problems they have with the energy transition. According to Janecek, the relationship is not free of tension. For example, the will be discussed The amount of the CO2 price and the question of what the state and what the market regulates. However, he sees the networking between the Greens and business at a high point. Ex-Siemens boss Joe Kaeser will speak at the federal delegates’ conference on the weekend. So are the bosses campaigning for the Green Chancellor candidate Baerbock?

Industry is critical of the election program

Joachim Lang from the Federation of German Industries does not want to make an election recommendation. He also says that relations with the Greens have improved. According to him, the party leadership has begun to be interested in the economy. He is all the more astonished by the Greens’ party program. The BDI chief executive calls it “a tribute to the left party base”. Lang accuses the Greens of wanting to replace the social market economy with state control and redistribution. He means, for example, rent ceilings, a higher top tax rate and a wealth tax.

Economy demands faster climate decisions

The industry association thinks it is good that the Greens want to push investments. In the draft of the election manifesto, on which the Greens delegates will vote on the weekend, there is talk of investments amounting to 50 billion euros per year. The money is to be spent on fast internet, rail expansion, research and urban development. This is to be financed primarily through loans. Regardless of who will rule after the federal election – the industry wants planning security in climate policy. Lang says: “Every new federal government will have to find clear, new decision-making paths because we no longer have the time for the previous decision-making paths.”

Weak economic literacy in state elections

Back in Saxony-Anhalt. Habeck is campaigning in the beer garden on the Peißnitzinsel in Halle. He stands in the shade of some trees and reports on his visit to Leuna. His conclusion: The contrast between climate protection and the economy has always been “stupid”. Climate protection is economic policy and location policy. There is applause from around 100 listeners. But in the state elections in Saxony-Anhalt last Sunday, the Greens won only a few votes. The election analysis shows that the economy and jobs remain weak points for the party. The pollsters of Infratest dimap measure the lowest competence values ​​here.

The Swiss love to say: God is especially fond of the Lavaux terraces, so he awarded it three suns.

Thinking of China’s Hou Yi shooting the sun to save sentient beings, does it give rise to the illusion of “Are the Swiss particularly carrying the sun”?

The truth is this.

Lavaux is a wine-producing region in Switzerland. When we start thinking about the best wineries in the world, the first ones that may come to mind are Podol in France, Napa Valley in the United States, Marlborough in New Zealand, etc., but in the latest On the list of the top ten wineries in the world, the first place is to be shared today-Lavaux vineyards in Switzerland.

Lavaux Vineyard is located on the southern slope of the Alps between Lausanne and Vaud in Switzerland. It starts from Chillon Castle in the east and the suburbs of Lausanne in the west. It extends 40 kilometers along Lake Geneva and covers an area of ​​more than 890 hectares. It is the most famous grape producing area in Switzerland.

The winery is located on a small piece of land. Perhaps its efficiency and reputation are not as high as other wineries, but it is the only winery listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site among the top ten wineries in the world.

Lavaux has a long history of growing grapes and making wine.

In the earliest days, it was a barren mountainous land. In the middle of the 12th century, the priests of the Western Metropolis of Switzerland began to cultivate the land here. They built up the stones on the hillside into a series of stone walls, and then moved the fertile soil from other places to cultivate the terraces before planting grapes.

To produce high-quality wine, grapes are the most important thing, and for grape growing: sunlight, temperature, and humidity are all important. The most important of these is light.

Lavaux is good because of the three suns it possesses.

The first sun refers to the sky; the second refers to Lake Geneva, because it reflects/scatters/refracts sunlight;

The third refers to the insulation of the stone walls against the refraction of sunlight.

Under the influence of the priests, the people of Lavaux also gradually participated in the work of reclaiming the land and establishing the irrigation system. Large and small vineyards were gradually built, and finally the famous Chasselas grapes were cultivated.

With the growing of the vineyards and the growing number of wine-making workshops here, Lavaux has naturally developed into a Swiss wine-producing region, and eventually formed 6 famous wine brands, among which Dessares wines The most famous.

In 2007, UNESCO listed the Lavaux terraced fields in the “World Heritage List”. Its comment is: Lavaux terraced vineyards reflect the mutual adjustment between residents and the environment to optimize local resources and produce high-quality wines. And adaptation can be called cultural heritage.

Unlike many remote wineries, Lavaux’s geographical location can be called “noisy”. Almost every self-driving Swiss traveler will pass by here, because it is not only on the shore of Lake Zhiva, but also only a short drive from Geneva, the capital of the universe. 1 hour.

Although the Lavaux grape terraces have existed for nearly a thousand years, they do not seem to be old and exhausted at all, but rather a vibrant scene. This is naturally the result of people’s meticulous care. Just like the human body, the land is full of infinite possibilities, and it also requires recuperation and proper use according to the law to truly achieve sustainability, so that the land can continue to ensure adequate food and clothing for humans.

Starting from Geneva, driving north through the Lavaux Vineyards in the middle. The crescent-shaped Lake Geneva is the outermost on the right. The vineyards follow the trend of the hillside and flow all the way down, all the way to the Walanwa blue lake. in.

The two gleamed together in the sun.

Especially when compared with the endangered Banaue terraced farms in the Philippines, there is a sense of dignity and superiority.

The cascading vineyards are in order, full of fulfillment in autumn.

The train tracks also pass through the middle of the terraces. This section is one of the most beautiful train sightseeing routes in Switzerland. Sitting on the train, drinking wine and seeing the beautiful scenery, it’s wonderful to think about it.

In the life experience of many of us, being a farmer is a very hard job. That’s why the teenagers have a mentality of “We must try our best to jump out of the farm to get good cabbage in the city.” However, they have settled in Las Vegas for generations. The Christoven family, who grows grapes and makes wine in the village of Voreváz, will say:

No job in the world is better than ours, and no place is more beautiful than here.

As a farmer, there is a world of difference in life. This is really worth thinking about.

Regarding Lavaux, there is also a local story: in the vineyards under the railway, you can often pick up train tickets from Lausanne back to northern Switzerland. It was thrown to the tourists who “love at first sight” on the terraces-because they never wanted to leave again, they simply threw away the return ticket.

From farmland to winery, from plantation to cultural tourism, “telling good stories” has always been an unbreakable truth.

Even Lavaux, a world heritage site.

Diva My Linh’s share about My Anh.

Having a talented daughter who follows her family career, My Linh cannot help but be proud but still mixed with many worries. The diva shared about My Anh on her personal page: “Girls often go to perform far away from home, just like their mother for a week. I was busy at home, too, it was normal to stay in the studio until two or three o’clock in the morning. If I see that, then I love you to tell my father that you are so hard. Dad let him get used to the verse so hard to get used to it, why do we have a free job? Mom sighed, daughter that woke up early and woke up late at night. The family has two girls, both of which choose the father’s job and the man’s profession“.

Although she is a young female artist with a personality and a strong personality when she bravely confronts the terrible contestants The Heroes this year, but My Anh is still a little girl who confides everything to her mother. My Linh said: “Yesterday, I sent the link asking you to share it for me, I officially joined The Remix with a new name, The Heroes, mom. Each team will have contestants who are warriors with their own weapons. The sub-team has only me and I participated in both the role of producer and singer.

My weapon is the bass. Yesterday, when you were taking photos for the program, you kept asking me to hold a ten-pound guitar and hold one hand on the neck, force to lift it up as if I were holding a weapon, I was hurting my hand.“.

It can be seen that, no matter how much she believes in a daughter, My Linh is still a mother worried about My Anh’s handache, getting up early, getting up early, participating in the race of 12 V-Pop stars alone.

Not only a mother, but also a great artist, My Linh has gone through many difficulties and challenges to succeed as at present. She is fully aware of the things that girls will face in the future. However, perhaps inheriting the artist’s genes from her parents, My Anh is not only very talented at art but also extremely consistent with his passion.

When asked by her mother to prepare herself for the concubines, the young singer boldly replied: “Yes i know, I will try my best to avoid it, but I also wait for everyone to compliment, love and hate, and maybe insult. I think I have to get out of my comfort zone and live like an adult“.

Witnessing the maturity of her daughter, My Linh humorously shared: “Mom was silent to listen but also felt pain in my stomach. So it is prepared, it has grown, then it will fall and will stand up where it falls, should it be happy or sad? Please inform your friends and those who have loved her for a long time, this year I officially entered a contest but officially entered life as a warrior with a bass guitar.“.
