Swiss voters reject plan to boost biodiversity, vote against pension reform
Switzerland's biodiversity was dealt a blow on Sunday when voters rejected a plan to protect the country's endangered ecosytems. Environmentalists have repeatedly warned that the country's biodiversity is declining but the government said that the proposed measures would severely impact Switzerland's economy, agriculture, construction and energy production. Voters also rejected a pension reform plan backed by the government.
