AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Solar Rules: A Swiss initiative to exempt solar installations from planning permission failed after organizers missed the deadline to collect enough valid signatures, leaving a key permitting barrier in place. Vanishing Ice: Swiss glaciers lost 5.5% of their volume in 2026, with Rhône, Aletsch and Clariden among those setting melt records. Four Swiss students are testing sheep’s wool as insulation and say it slowed melting at an Alpine glacier by 50%. Wildlife: One third of Switzerland’s animal and plant species are under threat, as permits for wolf culls rise sharply.
