The environmentalist candidate for the presidential election was campaigning on Thursday in Isère. He supported the striking teachers. In the afternoon, in Lumbin and St Hilaire du Touvet, he observed the damage caused by global warming.
At the end of the afternoon, Yannick Jadot was on the Plateau des Petites Roches to observe the damage caused by the weather on December 29. For him, what happened is due to global warming. This must be taken into account when developing the mountain with “four season” activities: “On unfortunately see the damage when there are mudslides, when there are collapses, floods. But it is also an economic model that must be transformed because the snow cover will drop.“
“This campaign is in denial of the climate emergency”
“It’s always complicated to associate a weather phenomenon with global warming“, first declared, cautious, Yannick Jadot. “But snow, then thaw, then rain in winter, this is not normal operation“. Perched on the rubble and scree which almost entirely buried the cabin of the funicular and the hall of the station, and accompanied by his former competitors from the eco-primary, the mayor of Grenoble Eric Piolle and Delphine Batho, the MEP said: “Climate change must be tackled with determination, but since it is also already here, we must adapt to it“.
Or, “this campaign is in denial of the climate emergency. There is not a candidate who is called upon to say how we are going to respect the Paris agreements“, he regretted.
Asked about Jean-Luc Melenchon, which proposes “ecological planning”, Yannick Jadot threw: “We protect everywhere and all the time, including the sea and the seabed“. A reference to the massive development of wind turbines at sea advocated by the Insoumis, who will visit this Friday the “first offshore wind turbine in France” off Pornichet (Loire Atlantique).
“We will make the climate the heart of our project“, insisted Yannick Jadot. “It will be the only one consistent with science, and will be an opportunity to eat and breathe better, develop jobs“.
“The climate at the heart of our project”
While his candidacy, in the midst of soon five other main candidacies on the left, does not currently exceed 9% in the polls, he assured: “We may not be at the heart of the political debate, but we are right and at some point the French will want to hear the environmentalists on the climate“.
“Blanquer, I ask for his resignation”
At midday, he went to support the teachers who were demonstrating at the center of Grenoble. He repeated that he is asking for the resignation of the minister Bleach: “Faced with government instructions which destabilize teachers and which add anxiety to anxiety, the contempt of the minister Bleach unacceptable. I demand his resignation.“
The launch of Grenoble green capital takes place this weekend. Yannick Jadot finds it unacceptable that the President of the Republic, Emmanuel Macron, don’t make the move:”When you are lucky enough to have a city that is the green capital of Europe, you come here to celebrate the action that has been taken, even if it is not in its political mainstream.“
