26.7646 – «Klima» (climate) and «Biodiversität» (biodiversity): prohibited words at DETEC?

· Bundesklar Redaktion

According to the former FOT director, after Federal Councillor Rösti took office, Federal Council dispatch texts had to be amended at the instruction of the DETEC General Secretariat because they contained the word «Klimawandel» (climate change). Is the Federal Council as a whole aware of the practice of avoiding words such as «Klima» (climate) and «Biodiversität» (biodiversity) in texts, and what is its position on this?
