Big green promises






















Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg opened the Labour Party's national congress Thursday with the bold environmental promises he had refused to make before.

"Forward to 2020 we assume the duty of cutting greenhouse gases by 30 percent," Stoltenberg said in his speech to the party congress. "The mission of greenhouse gases is the most important challenge of our time and the challenges are greater than we previously believed," he said.
Idon't believe in miracles from the government.

Stoltenberg also promised to buy CO2 quotas for 100 percent of Norway's greenhouse emissions by 2050, to make the country "carbon neutral", in an address with a clear emphasis on climate commitments.

Let's hope so!!!
