Swiss narrowly reject tax hike to fight climate change

But Switzerland as a country should become carbon neutral at some point, according to the Paris agreement?

We are doomed - unless someone finds a technological (not social or political) solution to climate change.

I (Swiss citizen) being really disgusted at the whole poll, not just the CO2, and the anti insecticide and the pro-clean drink-water was rejected, but especially the "anti-terror" was accepted (means the police don't have to ask a judge when long-term restricting your freedom, even when you haven't done anything against the law, just a potential "terrorist" down to 12 yo...without having to ask a judge...it's disgusting, a bit like a internal Guantanamo-bay)

People are still confident that this won&#x27;t be a problem until after they are dead, so they&#x27;ll continue to extract as much as they possibly can from the earth while they are still here. Nobody voluntarily downgrades their lifestyle.
