In France, industries considered polluting are finding it increasingly difficult to recruit. The younger generation points the finger at their poor environmental practices.

Environmental activists protested against the Total group’s strategy of investing in new oil drilling on Wednesday May 25. Same protest, the day before, in London, against the Shell group. More and morecompanies are shown singled out for their poor environmental practices. A disaster for their image, to so much so that students from prestigious schools refuse to work for them.

More than 35,000 students from Grandes Ecoles call on companies to act for the climate. It is the confrontation of two generations with young people who today feel directly concerned by global warming. Some groups, having trouble attracting young people, are turning abroad, such as Total, which recruits in Venezuela.
