Grønland vil ikke udnytte olieforekomster

Det grønlandske selvstyre Naalakkersuisut har besluttet, at det er for risikabelt for miljøet at udnytte de store olieforekomster ud for Grønland. Derfor vil olien blive liggende i undergrunden, mens Grønland i stedet fokuserer på fangst og fiskeri.

”Naalakkersuisut har vurderet, at de miljømæssige konsekvenser ved olieefterforskning og olieudvinding er for store. Og de ressourcer vi bruger på at holde liv i drømmen om et olieeventyr kan anvendes bedre i andre dele af vores erhvervsliv”, siger Naaja H. Nathanielsen, minister for råstoffer, til Ingeniøren.

”Fremtiden ligger ikke i olie. Fremtiden tilhører den vedvarende energi og hvad det angår, har vi meget mere at vinde”, siger Naaja H. Nathanielsen.

Beslutningen vækker begejstring i Greenpeace, der i mange år har advaret inod olieefterforskning i de naturfølsomme grønlandske farvande.

»At den grønlandske regering har taget den beslutning, er fantastisk, særligt for os, som har arbejdet med at overtale Grønland til det i så mange år. Og min forståelse er, at de licenser, som er tilbage har meget begrænset potentiale”, siger generalsekretær for Greenpeace i Norden, Mads Flarup Christensen til Ingeniøren.
