Can someone knowledgeable here explain this projection in relation to green policies and carbon goals?

I assume they are now (even) less likely to be in form of mandates and we are moving towards 'capitalism (with a lil stimulus push here and there) will solve the problem it created'?
Tho maybe nuclear energy could also get a little bit more (re)renewed traction?

Also, the whole internet surveillance isn't going away now, is it?

The parties consistently voting in favor of green policies were Greens, Left and Socialdemocrats, with Liberals and independents varying wildly. Some decarbonization goals are still in place, but the new equilibrium may vote to revoke some of them and the actual laws to enforce them for good will likely not be passed.
