“It is all the same the COP which arrives after a summer which marked the impact of climate change around the world by creating catastrophes, human tragedies and it is a gulf between the result of this conference” of COP26 in Glasgow “and the objective that had been decided in Paris, which was to have climate policy trajectories that prevent us from exceeding 1.5 degrees of warming. There, we are at 2.5, 2.6, 2.7 degrees, according to evaluations “, continues Yannick Jadot.
The environmental candidate points to the responsibility “leaders and governments which, today, are in a conformism of policies and in a complacency vis-à-vis the lobbies which prevent them from advancing”.
“Never had we seen a Europe weighing so little and settling its accounts publicly within the COP 26”, according to the presidential candidate. “As long as you have governments which prefer pesticides, factory farming which contributes to global warming rather than agroecology, as long as you have governments which prefer alliance with the lobbies of oil, coal, gas, nuclear power, rather than investing in renewable energies, not only are you losing jobs, but you are creating climate drama “.
