Eder compares her political style to Rock'n'Roll - Green candidate Katrin Eder blends rock 'n' roll politics with bold environmental action
Katrin Eder, the lead Green candidate for Rhineland-Palatinate's upcoming state election, describes her political approach as rock 'n' roll—fast-paced, dynamic, and effective even when unconventional. She believes rules in politics must deliver tangible benefits for all, not just exist on paper. Her recent visits and commitments highlight her focus on environmental conservation and regional sustainability.
On February 21, 2026, Eder visited the ProObst e.V. association in Boppard, where she backed efforts to preserve traditional orchards. These spaces support local agriculture while boosting biodiversity, a cause she actively champions.
Eder has also pledged to safeguard the core zone of the Soonwald nature park from any construction, including wind turbines. The area, an FFH-protected site and vital bat habitat, must remain untouched, she insists. For her, climate protection and environmental conservation go hand in hand.
When asked about her dream job for a day, she chose freshwater ecology. She imagined releasing endangered crayfish, mussels, and fish back into the wild—a hands-on way to restore biodiversity and protect fragile ecosystems.
Eder's campaign blends bold political energy with concrete environmental conservation action. Her stance on Soonwald and support for traditional orchards reflect a broader push for sustainable policies. As the election nears, her rock 'n' roll style aims to turn promises into measurable change.
