By Plenary Sessions: Mihkel Lees

The political priority is focused on boosting the physical activity levels of children and youth, which is being treated as a major public health concern impacting both mental and physical well-being. The stance taken is strongly policy- and solutions-oriented, demanding coordinated government efforts to tackle the issue. The speaker stresses that the challenge is significant, given that less than half of young people are physically active enough.

The political stance centers on safeguarding public health but stresses the necessity of relying on scientific consensus when evaluating the health effects of wind farms. The speaker is highly skeptical of claims linking wind turbines to long-term health issues, preferring institutional data (the Health Board) for policy development. The position is strongly policy- and data-driven.
