Greenpeace regrets that progress has been too slow
Greenpeace Switzerland is warning that progress towards climate protection targets is slow. The organisation is calling for a more rapid expansion of solar energy, which is essential to better protect the climate and improve the security of Switzerland's electricity supply.
To achieve this, we don't need new gas-fired power stations, nor do we need to extend the operating life of existing nuclear power stations, let alone build new ones. The aim is to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to a net zero.
The Federal Council would have agreed to far too many greenhouse gas emissions in Switzerland in 2050. They would massively exceed Switzerland's remaining carbon budget. This carbon budget is a value that shows the physical relationship between the accumulation ofCO2 in the atmosphere and the rise in temperature.

Editor's note It is curious that the "climate pusher organisations" do not ask themselves why Switzerland (but this would be true of several other countries) is unable to follow them in their statements, their intentions and their warnings. Every year, they repeat their worrying statements about climate change and nothing changes. It's as if there were a gap between their opinion and the perception or apathy of public opinion. It's true that everyone has always lived in a world that continues as before, that hasn't really changed, and that we don't see deteriorating except, they say, at the other end of the world, which we don't see every day.
For the members of the climate organisations, we have to live among ourselves to remain mobilised, combative and convinced that we are right in the face of general indifference!
