Yannick Jadot proposes the creation of a “climate freedom pass” to facilitate travel for 16-25 year olds

The measure is not yet officially present in its program, but it was unveiled on the “Elysée 2022” set. Guest of the political program of France 2 Thursday February 17, Yannick Jadot indicated “to work” on a measure intended to promote the mobility of young people called “climate freedom pass”. That “map”should allow 16-25 year olds “to be able to move freely and to show that ecology also means being able to discover France unlimitedly, without the price of transport being an obstacle”said his entourage to franceinfo.

“It’s a kind of universal pass for young people aged 16 to 25, which has already been implemented by environmentalists in Austria”explained the environmentalist presidential candidate, who hinted that access to this card would be conditional on a “lump sum contribution”.

This “climate freedom pass” would take the form of “single card usable in all local authorities in France” who would give “unlimited access to all trains, public transport and self-service bicycles”explained to franceinfo the entourage of the candidate, who added that details on the financing of this measure would be provided in the coming days.
