Story summary
- A survey of over 80 climate scientists in Switzerland shows growing pessimism about reaching the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C target.
- Nearly all respondents expect 2.5°C warming by 2100, with Switzerland facing 4–4.5°C.
- This warming could cause severe impacts, including the disappearance of more than 90% of Swiss glaciers and more frequent heatwaves.
- Researchers say Switzerland must lead, but public pressure is fading and climate policies are insufficient, risking ineffective action.
