Aware of the environmental cause from childhood, Marion Cotillard has always fought for the preservation of the planet. And, actress known worldwide thanks to her Oscar for her role as Edith Piaf in The kid, she does not hesitate today to put her notoriety at the service of her environmental convictions. A committed woman, she became an activist alongside Greenpeace in 2001 and, in 2013, 2013, dares to put himself in a cage with a sign I’m a climate defender(I am a climate activist) to demand the release of 30 Greenpeace activists detained in Russia. She also participates in the project “The Deal of the Century” supported by 4 organisations: Notre Affaire à Tous, the Nicolas Hulot Foundation for Nature and Man, Greenpeace France and Oxfam France. And it aims to sue the French state for inaction on climate change. She also refused, in 2002, to be muse for L’Oréal. This brand is on the blacklist of environmental NGOs. She will be invited in 2015 by François Hollande for a State visit to Manila on the theme of the fight against global warming.

“Are these acts not infinitely more violent, more serious, more criminal?”
New bloodshed this Sunday, June 25, 2023 from the companion of Guillaume Canet from his Instagram account: “What is happening in our country is extremely serious and I think we have to ask ourselves the following questions: Where is the real violence? Who are the real criminals?” she launches as a manifesto. The problem ? “From arrests of nameless brutality to gassings during peaceful demonstrations, sometimes seriously injuring many people, to house arrest of those who fight for the common interest… the list of police violence and, this fact, governmental against environmental movements makes you dizzy and nauseous.” she explains, furious at the violence suffered by the defenders of the planet: “Those who warn of the eminently dangerous drift of our world and our humanity, the activists who demand government action commensurate with the urgency, are today qualified as criminals or eco-terrorists.” Especially since it denounces the pro-system policy developed by capitalism, of these societies which destroy, for the sake of gain, our planet: “Meanwhile, large multinationals, large banks, continue to invest massively in fossil fuels, to build infrastructures which contribute to warming the climate and to cause deaths, disasters throughout the world, to endanger the living conditions of life on our planet. Are not these acts infinitely more violent, more serious, more criminal? Yet these companies are never worried.” A kind of “J’accuse” claimed loud and clear by Marion Cotillard who directly attacks the current government: “The security drift of this government, coupled with its failure to protect us from the consequences of climate change, is frightening. But these intimidations will not be able to silence us.
Today, in our country, freedom is in danger. This naturally causes outrage.” And to sign: “Absolute support for @Soulevements.de.la.terre” For their part, Internet users do not hide their division on the subject… and do not hesitate to strike the artist: “You’re losing your mind.. first sweep outside your door and set the example you demand of others. Working for the LVMH group for example, so opaque in its way of managing its relocations, is in contradiction with the values that you seem to defend. ; “Seriously your support for those who break, tear and ransack everything… Ecology yes but not like that. You should have thought before supporting anyone”; “(…) it would give more impact to your speech if you did your self-criticism… the series, the films, 99% of our employers are financed thanks to the speculative machine which serves as our economic base… to deny it is demagoguery or idiocy.(…)”; “(…) What a shame to see written on this first line of this post, The police are murdering the same police that you worshiped during the Charlie Hebdo and November 13 attacks. Continue with your anti-police, anti-France speeches.”, etc
