“Emmanuel Macron’s five-year term is a lost five-year term for the climate”, affirms the deputy of the North Adrien Quatennens and coordinator of La France insoumise on Wednesday 3 November on France Inter, while the President of the Republic called “the largest issuers” to “enhance their ambitions” at the start of the COP26 held in Glasgow, Scotland, untilto November 12.

“It’s unfortunate. It feels like a new peak spectacle, deplores the deputy LFI. We are attending an eloquence competition on the theme of the climate and we have in particular Emmanuel Macron who comes, all over the place, to give lessons to the whole Earth. But let’s look at his record. ” The rebel elected recalls that his government was condemned for climate inaction, that it refused to ban glyphosate and in particular reintroduced neonicotinoids.

“I do not see why Emmanuel Macron feels authorized to give such lessons when France does not even respect its own objectives of the COP which it proudly welcomed.”

“It was planned that France’s greenhouse gas emissions would be reduced by 2% per year, we are at 1.2%, so we will have to increase our efforts”, continues Adrien Quatennens who details the energy program of Jean-Luc Mélenchon, candidate for the presidential election. Insubordinate France is based on and follows the calendar of the negaWatts association which campaigns for an energy policy based on sobriety and which has published a scenario according to which the last nuclear reactor will close in 2045.

For the coordinator of La France insoumise, it is necessary “develop and put the package on renewable energies, geothermal energy, offshore wind turbines, and combine all this with energy sobriety”. It’s all going to be “a technical challenge, a human challenge, we are going to roll up our sleeves and take it up together, because we have to”.
