Comment to 'Yes, climate change is real'
  • ... Depending on their "leading position" - yeah, 5 % can make quite a difference...;)

    Here, with our direct democracy which means that we can take votes on almost everything on a national, cantonal (districts) and local level (towns, villages) it is always about finding a good compromise that does not shy away too many people... old and young, wealthy, middle class and underprivileged, right-wing and left-wing alike... not always easy.

    That is why quite a lot of decisions take such a long time and sometimes numerous attempts of the government and the parliament and are necessarily accompanied by a lot of public debate - until we finally reach an agreement.

    The more it affects everyone's life and therefore means one or the other thing to everyone like climate change or our caring system for the elderlies the harder it gets.

    But I am far from complaining, of course!!!!! Just a bit disappointed, sometimes...

    Have a good day now, Sasha, and thanks for giving feedback!

    Very kindly
