Finland to get rid of oil too

Posted by Tuike on peakoil.com :

There was previously in the news about Sweden getting oil independent. Now Finnish decision makes are talking similary. I'll translate the news.

Kokoomus party's (conservative) chairman Jyrki Katainen says Finland should cut itself loose of oil dependance. Katainen supports the proposal of [finance] minister Eero Heinaluoma that Finland should pursue to get rid of oil by 2030. So Finland would follow the footsteps of Sweden. Katainen thinks Finland should invest on research and become "great power of bioenergy". News in Finnish
