At the microphone of Europe 1, the Secretary of State to the Minister of the Transition Ecological and Solidarity wanted to put into perspective the weak mobilization of Saturday during the march against global warming in Paris.

INTERVIEW

Only 15,000 people participated in the March for the climate Saturday in Paris. They were 100,000 in Berlin and 100,000 in London. Does this mean that the French are less sensitive about global warming than other nationalities? "I do not believe that the figures mean that the French are less concerned than the others by the ecology", wanted to sweep Emmanuelle Wargon, the Secretary of State to the Minister of the ecological transition and solidarity, the microphone of Grand Rendezvous Europe 1 / CNews / Les Echos.

"We had young people who walked for the climate on Friday, they were 15,000 in Paris on Saturday, but worried about the agglomeration of 'yellow vests'," said the official to justify the weak mobilization. Emmanuelle Wargon also recalls that the event was disrupted by the black blocks.

"These events are going in the right direction, they are people who tell us do not relax, do more," she says. "Even if there are only 15,000 people, that does not undermine the government's determination to act."
