Climate is not one policy
A shared concern about climate does not settle questions about taxation, regulation, ownership or the pace of change. Compare the practical measures each party publishes.
Economic approach
The parties often use different language about markets, public ownership and redistribution. Read whole policy sections to avoid taking a single slogan out of context.
- Check transport and energy proposals.
- Read distributional and rural impacts.
- Check proposed legislation or budget measures.
Government and opposition
The Green Party has participated in coalition government; People Before Profit–Solidarity typically operates as an opposition grouping. That distinction may help explain their records and priorities.
