The Greens nominate Henrike Müller as Bremen's Environment Senator!
There is a breath of fresh air in the Bremen political world: The Greens have nominated Henrike Müller as the new Senator for the Environment, Climate and Science. This was announced on November 5, 2025, and the decision was made unanimously by the state executive committee of the Greens. Müller convinced with 114 out of 120 votes cast, which shows that she is very popular. Next week there will be an election by the Bremen citizens, which is of great importance for her political career. Müller was most recently active as parliamentary group leader of the Greens and has already made his mark there.
But what does the new senator bring with her? Henrike Müller was born in Dessau in 1975 and has found her place in Bremen politics for 15 years. She has been a member of the Bremen citizenship since 2015 and is now taking over from Kathrin Moosdorf, who announced her resignation at the beginning of October due to expanded backgrounds. There were inconsistencies surrounding the dismissal of a state councilor, which brought the public prosecutor's office to the scene and is investigating her for breach of trust.
A clear plan for environmental protection
Henrike Müller has already made a clear position: She wants to gain speed in the fight against climate change. It plans to implement the climate action plan and create financial scope for a climate-neutral transformation. She is particularly interested in the energy-efficient renovation of public buildings. In addition to these measures, Müller also focuses on providing climate-friendly heat for people with low incomes and wants to support the University of Bremen's application as a university of excellence.
Given the upcoming 2027 national elections, Müller will start office with fresh ideas and a solid plan. Her ambitions are clear: environmental and climate protection will be a central point of her agenda, and she has the support of her party behind her. The successor to the position of group leader of the Green Party is still unclear and will be decided in the next few days.
An exciting time lies ahead for the citizens of Bremen. The questions that arise are complex: How will Müller implement her ideas in practice, and can she successfully meet the challenges of climate change? It remains to be seen what the coming weeks and months will bring.
The political upheaval in Bremen shows that fresh minds and new ideas are needed - and Henrike Müller will play a crucial role in this transformation. For the Bremen Greens, the nomination also means a new beginning in the environmental department after its predecessor was criticized.
