The ecological question seems to have been forgotten in the presidential campaign. A regret for the French, who would like the candidates to offer them, for example, alternatives to the car.

The fight against global warming and the preservation of nature are crucial issues for the French. However, they are struggling to make a place for themselves in the foreground in the debates of the presidential campaign. AT Roanne (Loire)the inhabitants regret that the Covid-19then the war in Ukraine, have overshadowed environmental issues. A man entrusts, as for him, that the ecology is not an essential subject in the choice of his candidate.

In the programs of candidates for the presidential election, however, there is no shortage of proposals on the issue, such as those aimed at putting an end to thermal cars.
