Schwarzenholz belonged to the Young Democrats (DJD) and the FDP at the end of the 1960s . Because of his “anti-parliamentary” left stance, he was expelled from the FDP at the end of 1969, as was the DJD state chairman Peter R. Tempel. As a result, he became involved in the Radical Democratic Youth , a spin-off of the then FDP-loyal wing of the Lower Saxony young democrats, in which he was temporarily acting deputy state chairman. Even at this time he felt the " liberalism for reactionary and demanded its consistent further development of socialism ". The regional arbitration tribunal of the Young Democrats also excluded him from their ranks as spokesman for the left parliamentary group in September 1970 on the basis of the thesis that Marxism and liberalism were compatible with one another.

In 1986 Schwarzenholz joined the Greens and has worked in the Lower Saxony Ministry of the Environment since 1991 . As a result of the state election in 1994 , he moved into the state parliament of Lower Saxony via the state list of the Greens, where he was the environmental policy spokesman for his party. After differences with the party over the atomic consensus , he resigned at the beginning of January 1999 and joined the PDS on January 7th. He ignored requests from his former party to give up his mandate and was a non-attached member of parliament until 2003 . From October 15, 2000 to the Gera party congress of the PDS in October 2002, he was a member of the party executive. Annoyed by the party's shift to the left associated with the party congress, he announced that he would vote for the SPD in the 2003 state elections and was therefore expelled from the PDS in March 2003. The following June, the exclusion was lifted after an objection by Schwarzenholz. Nevertheless, he left the party shortly afterwards and joined the SPD in 2005 .

After leaving the state parliament, Schwarzenholz returned to the Lower Saxony Ministry of the Environment as an energy officer.
