Marion Cotillard brought her “sabsolute support“to the environmental movement of the Uprisings of the earth, dissolved this week by the government, whose actress criticizes both climate inaction and”bullying”, in a post published Sunday, June 25 on his Instagram account.
The actress denounces a “security drift”
“What is happening in our country is extremely serious“, writes the French star, Oscar winner for The kid in 2008. “Those who warn of the eminently dangerous drift of our world and our humanity, the activists who demand government action commensurate with the emergency, are today qualified as criminals or eco-terrorists.“, she continues. And this while those who “continue to invest massively in fossil fuels”putting “jeopardize the living conditions on our planet“, aren’t they”never worried“, she is indignant.
“The security drift of this government, coupled with its inability to protect us from the consequences of climate change, is frightening. But these intimidations will not be able to silence us. Today, in our country, freedom is in danger“, she adds again.
Dissolution criticized
The collective of the Uprisings of the earth was dissolved Wednesday in the Council of Ministers, the Minister of the Interior Gérald Darmanin invoking his “major role in the design, dissemination and legitimization of violent modus operandi“.
This decision, which the Uprisings of the Earth intend to contest, has provoked a series of condemnations among defenders of fundamental freedoms and within the left, which condemns “a climate of criminalization of environmental movements“. The Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, present Wednesday in Paris, gave her support to the collective.
Several cultural personalities have already expressed their support in recent months for the Uprisings of the Earth, such as the actress Adèle Haenel, the filmmaker and activist Cyril Dion or the Nobel Prize winner for literature Annie Ernaux.
