Question 25200 — climate

Summary

Ms. Florence Provendier draws the attention of the Minister of Ecological and Inclusive Transition to France's climate commitments during COP 25. From December 2 to December 13, 2019, 196 countries including France met in Madrid to try to find a more ambitious agreement to limit global warming to 1.5° by the end of the century. What is happening in Madrid is decisive for the international community to act collectively an agreement that meets the climate emergency. If the Paris Agreement provides that signatory countries communicate to the UN commitments called “national contributions” every five years, these contributions must be increased. The latest reports from IPCC climate experts showed that the contributions made in Paris in 2015 led the planet to a temperature increase of 3.2°C. It is in Glasgow in 2020 that we will have to commit to a new trajectory that meets the objective signed in Paris, but it seems unreasonable to wait another year to act. Indeed, the instruments of ecological and inclusive transition exist and were recognized by all UN member states in 2015 when signing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as part of the 2030 Agenda. These 17 objectives constitute the roadmap national and international road for a fairer and more sustainable world. The French government has already committed 5.08 billion euros in climate financing in 2018 and initiated numerous reforms in favor of an ecological and inclusive transition. France must be exemplary and be there for major world events. She would like to know what commitments France will make during COP 25 to accelerate its action to combat global warming.
