In the upcoming EU elections, six out of eight Swedish parties advocate for increased climate action at the EU level.
Only the Sweden Democrats oppose this, while the Moderates prefer maintaining the current level.
Jesper Lindholm, a Social Democrat candidate, emphasizes environmental issues in his campaign, contrasting the emissions from private jets with the promotion of electric cars and affordable buses.
Lindholm believes that 60% of decisions in Sweden are influenced by Brussels, highlighting the importance of EU climate policies.
Despite global challenges, he remains optimistic about positive international examples.
