Omnibus Survey 2023: Environmental quality and behaviour

In 2023, 41% of the population said that they had noticed severe changes in the climate in Switzerland, 48% slight changes and 11% no changes. While 86% rate the quality of the environment in Switzerland as very good or quite good, traffic noise and air pollution are increasingly perceived as a nuisance. The loss of biodiversity, climate change and water scarcity are seen to pose the greatest dangers to humans and the environment, while nuclear power stations in particular have become less important in this respect.
