It’s the first time that citizens have approved a net-zero law in a direct vote. In all, 59.1% of voters approved the government’s new climate and innovation law. The government and all major parties, except for the right-wing Swiss People’s Party, had called to vote in favour of the bill.
Almost all European (and many other) countries have set similar goals for 2000, 2020, 2035 and noch 2050, and we are all just breezing by them. On the contrary, the CO2 output has increased since 2000 (at least in Austria, didn’t check every other country).
Setting goals doesn’t matter if there is no plan and no punishment for not keeping it.
The current plan of basically all countries is “let’s wait another 20 years and see if some magic technological solution to our problems appear”. That’s not planning, that’s superstition.
