Interview with David Hiler – “We must be prepared for violent political divisions”

What will the ecological future of Switzerland look like after the failure of the CO₂ law? A pioneer of the Greens, the Genevan responds bluntly.

The CO₂ law has sunk. The green wave, was it pipeau?

The green wave has generated a fairly broad awareness, including in the political world. It had an impact on the federal elections, where the Greens and the Green-Liberals made significant progress. But it is not a tsunami, and these parties remain very much in the minority at the national level. This wave will therefore not be enough to guarantee that all the measures we take in the ecological transition will be a cakewalk. Especially since the youth movement that initiated this wave was shattered by the Covid.
