The energy agency should inform the citizens neutrally before the vote on five wind turbines in the Ebersberger Forst.
Our author finds that it proves right from the start that it is unsuitable for this.
The citizens of the Ebersberg district should vote on the construction of five wind turbines in the Ebersberger Forest.
The district energy agency is supposed to provide neutral information on this.
It does not succeed, it is sending a devastating signal for the coming debate, argues our commentator.
District
- The opening message from the Ebersberg Energy Agency for the wind power information campaign leaves no doubt: the “Competence Center for All Energy Issues” fully supports the five-rotor project in the forest.
But with this, their information campaign failed before it even started.
A neutral clarification before the referendum is not expected from the energy agency.
She is simply the wrong place for this.
The agency may be right that we cannot go on without much more sustainable electricity generation.
But thanks to this dip in the head right at the start, this will no longer be the subject of the public debate.
The discussion will be more about the info campaign than the matter
Right from the start, the opponents of wind power had a problem with the appointment of the energy agency as “citizen enlightenment”.
Rightly so, it turns out.
This damages the discussion immensely.
It will no longer just be about the pros and cons of wind power in the Ebersberger Forest.
The district politics will not get rid of the stigma of having steered the argumentation in the pro-wind direction from the start.
