  • 750 Wanderrouten Der Wandergruppe Sissach
    Wandergruppe Sissach 750 Wanderrouten 750 Wanderrouten der Wandergruppe Sissach Wie alles entstand Im Herbst 1989 kamen zwei Männerriegler, beide pas- sionierte Wanderer, auf die Idee den AHV-Alltag mit gemeinsamen Nachmittags-Ausflügen etwas aufzulo- ckern und die Marschtüchtigkeit zu fördern. Bevorzug- tes Gebiet waren die herrlichen Weiden und Höhenzü- gen in der Umgebung Froburg/Schafmatt. Auf ihren ausgedehnten Wanderungen diskutierten der Paul Schmassmann Oskar Tschannen Tschannen Oski und der Schmassman Paul über Ski- fahren, Skiwandern, über Hochgebirgswanderungen, über Versicherungen, über Wein- und Schnaps-Herstellung und vieles andere. Dass der Oski et- was mehr Diskussionsanteil beisteuerte, darf wohl verraten werden. Beim zweiten gemeinsamen Bummel entwickelte sich die Idee, solch regelmässige Ausflüge könnten doch auch noch andere Männerriegler interessieren, die bereits zur AHV-Garde gehören. Paul Schmassmann ... und so kam es, dass während den letzten 30 Jahren auf den 750 Wanderungen total 14‘899 Teilnehmer 1‘923 Wanderstunden absolvierten. Legende Nr.

  • Annexiv-Waste Management in Switzerland and Ticino
    ANNEX IV - WASTE MANAGEMENT IN SWITZERLAND AND TICINO SWITZERLAND The Swiss Confederation, commonly known as Switzerland, is a federal republic made up of 26 cantons. Its capital is Bern and its population is about 8 million people. It is situated in Western Europe, bordered by Germany, Austria, Italy, France and Lichtenstein. Four official languages are spoken in Switzerland: German, French, Italian and Romansh. Other demographic characteristics of Switzerland are presented schematically in figure 1 and table 2. Politically, the Swiss Confederation is composed as follows. The federal constitution adopted in 1848 established the legal foundations of the country. This is one of the oldest constitutions in the world (Federal Chancellery, 2013). The federal constitution established the country as a direct democracy; therefore, citizens have the right to intervene in parliamentary decisions. Three levels of government exist: federal, cantonal and municipal. At the federal level, the parliament has the legislative power, the Federal Council is the executive and the Federal Court has judicial power. The parliament is composed of both the Council of States and the National Council, with 200 representatives in total. The Council of States has 46 representatives - two for each canton and 1 for half-canton. The National Council’s representatives are elected proportionally to the population of each canton. Modalities of election of the representatives vary within each canton. Switzerland is a very economically active and rich country. It has the fifth highest GDP per capita in the world (World Bank, 2013), and the majority of its businesses are from the tertiary sector. The most developed sectors in Switzerland are pharmaceutical and financial (with Zurich, Geneva and Lugano being the three biggest financial centres).
