By Plenary Sessions: Jüri Jaanson

The speaker demonstrates knowledge of the scientific discourse surrounding climate change, addressing the question of anthropogenic causes and common counterarguments (such as solar activity). They express interest in the scientific consensus and inquire about humanity's capacity to halt or reverse climate change. Furthermore, they are informed about the preparation process for the climate-resilient economy bill.

The speaker demonstrates expertise in the internal work processes of the Riigikogu and legislative procedure. They specifically reference Section 105 of the Riigikogu Rules of Procedure and Internal Rules Act, which covers the procedure for the second reading, and they know exactly what the bill’s rapporteur is required to clarify. This points to a profound grasp of parliamentary rules and practice.

The speaker demonstrates knowledge of the links between European Union policy and the international economy. They use specific data and cite a study by the Kiel Institute for the World Economy to support their question. Reliance on expert assessments is a crucial component of their argumentation.
