Three words for an ambition: “France nation green”. Friday, October 21, the Prime Minister, Elisabeth Borne, was, from the Urban Farm of La Recyclerie, in Paris, to reveal the name intended to coat the vision of ecology that her government carries. The French declination of the European “Green Deal”, is enthusiastic about Matignon.

las. As a “steering wheel” intended to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 55 % by 2030 and reach carbon neutrality in 2050, it is rather a method of the method. The hope of boarding the whole society will hold in the new government slogan, “act, mobilize, accelerate”, in order to do more for the climate in eight years than all that France has accomplished in thirty-two years.

Planning “not as in the Soviet Union, finally not quite”, he jokes, stressing that each minister will be responsible and liable for achieving their objectives. An appointment clause is scheduled for the end of the year.

Enough to accompany decisions already taken, such as “zero net artificial” of the soil or the production of 2 million electric cars in 2050.
