The Young Greens’ environmental responsibility initiative aims to adapt the economy and consumption to the planet’s regenerative capacity in ten years. However, Swiss Environment Minister Albert Rösti deems this plan unrealistic, stating it threatens both the economy and social stability. The Federal Council and majority of Parliament advocate for a ‘no’ vote in the upcoming February referendum, citing potential negative impacts such as increased costs of living for low-income households and the risk of companies relocating abroad. Rösti argues the current measures are sufficient for resource conservation.
