In September 2025, Swissinfo send out a survey asking scientists in Switzerland 22 questions focused around the state of climate research, policy and global warming 10 years after the landmark Paris Agreement on climate change. Here are all the results.

The survey was sent out to 108 climate scientists working at the following institutions: EPFL, ETH Zürich, University of Neuchatel, University of Zurich, University of Bern, University of Basel, University of Geneva, University of Fribourg, University of Lausanne, Paul Scherrer Institute, Swiss federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research, Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology (Empa) and MeteoSwiss.

Eighty researchers completed the survey.

In the article series “10 Years of the Paris Agreement”, we highlight what has been done in terms of emissions, renewable energy, climate policies and climate research in Switzerland and around the world. 

Here are all the results. We have only left out the questions with a free form.
