Environmental and climate protection – securing the natural basis of life
The nature and the environment are the basis of our lives. We want to treat what we have with respect and protect it.
Our nationwide promotion goals include the protection of nature, the environment and water, the preservation of wildlife and the improvement of biodiversity in our cultural landscape, as well as climate protection. They are closely connected to the goal of protecting our natural resources, improving the quality of life and ensuring long-term ecological sustainability.
We believe it is important to raise young people's awareness about nature issues and the protection of our environment so for us practical environmental education is the key with promotion of the corresponding projects in the region of Zurich.
