We want to use every means at our disposal to turn ecology into the inescapable theme of these elections.”

What the candidates are being asked is the development of renewable energies, the commitment to the circular economy and waste reduction measures, the promotion of the use of the Basque currency, support for local and quality agriculture, work for quality public transport, as well as the development of measures to reduce electricity consumption.
