Austria has set the goal of being climate-neutral by no later than 2050 â this is our vision. A strategy that includes a comprehensive transformation of both our energy supply and our consumption patterns and that includes an adapted but competitive economic system goes far beyond of merely reducing greenhouse gas emissions. It must contain all three pillars of sustainability âeconomic, social, and environmental aspects â as this is the only way to achieve committing to far-reaching changes by the population. Resource saving, sustainable and innovative technologies and the circular economy are key elements to achieve the goal. The development of this vision, the design of the strategy, the definition, the implementation and review of concrete measures is a core task of politicians and public administration.
