“Not a word on the climate, on the living” strongly regrets Delphine Batho, spokesperson for the ecological presidential candidate Yannick Jadot, Thursday December 16 on franceinfo after the long interview with the head of state Wednesday December 15 evening on TF1.
“The most serious distressing question for our security, for the future of humanity, with already very concrete consequences, has not been addressed by the President of the Republic over two hours of broadcast”, she laments.
“This is something that history will no doubt judge very harshly.”

For two hours, Emmanuel Macron defended at length the results of his five-year term, while also acknowledging having made mistakes and, above all, “have learned” the various crises he has faced since 2017. The Head of State referred to economic reforms, the Covid-19, the movement of “yellow vests”. But in his report and his outlook, the Head of State barely mentioned the climate issue and its solutions to reduce global warming. A fault, for Delphine Batho.
“Not a word for the youth revolt on the climate. Not a word for the living and the catastrophes which have multiplied, for example, last summer”, continues the former Minister of Ecology. “There is a five-year period of failure for Emmanuel Macron, a non-compliance with the Paris agreement, a judicial conviction for climate inaction in the case of the century”, so there was “certainly a desire to hide this disturbing question, but it is very significant”.
