  Zurich - Residents of the Indonesian island of Pulau Pari have filed a complaint against the cement giant Holcim, demanding compensation for climate damage, in the first move of its kind in Switzerland, the NGO backing them announced Wednesday.
  "For the first time, a Swiss company must answer for its role in contributing to climate change in court," said Swiss Church Aid, a non-governmental organisation which advocates for climate justice.
  On Tuesday, the four islanders filed a civil complaint against Holcim on behalf of the entire island at the Cantonal Court of Zug.
