Shortly before the CDU/CSU parliamentary group’s energy summit on November 5, an unusual alliance within the party is campaigning for the introduction of a climate bonus. The „Klima-Union“ has drawn up a detailed paper on this; according to information from Table.Briefings, the executive committee of the party’s SME association has also adopted similar demands. They are supported by Dennis Radtke, Chairman of the CDU Employees’ Association (CDA), and Roland Koch, Chairman of the conservative-libertarian Ludwig Erhard Foundation.
