Welcome to the web of Swiss environmental information
and research institutes in Switzerland!
This is a guide to webpages written in Switzerland, either informing the general public, to our opinion without demanding previous knowledge (public information), or to webpages written for a target group with more or less scientific background (scientific information). Furthermore you will find pages pointing to Swiss research institutes. International organisations located in Switzerland as IPCC or WMO are also listed on a separate webpage.
This link list is preliminary and has not yet been split into public, scientific and institutes.
