We are still on the path to climate catastrophe

As the title of this year's report suggests, 'The Heat is on'. And as the contents of that same report show, the leadership we need is missing. 

Le Monde

while climatic catastrophes are unleashed in all regions of the world, States are required to put themselves in order of battle to fight against this existential threat.

we are still far from it. Not only are the countries' commitments made for 2030 leading the planet to a global warming of 2.7 ° C at the end of the century, but, moreover, they have not yet been respected. Mid-century carbon neutrality goals are a 'hope' but remain 'vague, often incomplete and not aligned with most short-term plans,'

the United Nations Environment Program, in its annual review of climate action, published Tuesday.

COP 26: the house is on fire, where will Glasgow look? 

Liberation.

 The problem is that the greats of this world who will end up in Scotland continue to look elsewhere. Not to mention those, like Vladimir Putin or Xi Jinping, who will not even make the trip, while affirming that the fight against global warming is obviously one of their priorities. The prospect of coming out on top of this new climate summit is unfortunately unlikely. Despite Joe Biden's decision to bring the United States back to the table after the years of empty chair decided by Donald Trump. Despite the reels of a Boris Johnson who would be too happy to leave this meeting organized in his stronghold on a success, but who does not take any serious decision at home to contribute to it. So goes climate diplomacy,

Release: slowly, very slowly (…).

Meanwhile, the world continues to produce more greenhouse gases when emissions should be reduced even more drastically than anticipated in the 2015 Paris Agreement. Meanwhile, devastating floods, mega -fires, storms or heat waves thrive everywhere on the planet, bringing in their wake human tragedies and social disasters, themselves heralds of the looming economic impasse.

The COPs which follow one another strive to push back the closing wall.

While it would be necessary to change the route.

The spectacular drop in unemployment,

Les Echos

The number of job seekers who have not worked at all fell by more than 200,000 in the third quarter of this year, falling below its pre-crisis level, 

 It's unheard of, 

France still lags behind, with 3.5 million unemployed, a huge amount of unused labor. (…) The short-term effects of the unemployment insurance reform and the medium-term effects of vocational training should help remedy this.

What now?

Le Figaro

The hardest part is yet to come.

The urgent need to adjust supply and demand on a labor market characterized - it is a climax with 3.5 million unemployed - by labor shortages.

The tightening of unemployment insurance will help.

But immense in-depth work, still very timid, is needed in education and training to find the skills that are lacking. 

 precariousness reigns more than ever on the job market 

La Charente Libre

In the social landscape that is emerging today, the new unemployment compensation rules intended to promote the return to employment risk first of all putting in great difficulty those who remain by the wayside. The world according to the + whatever it costs + as it appears requires flexibility. It imposes mobility and precariousness without the salary level following. Everyone has understood that only a gigantic training effort can meet the challenges that arise. But

in the upcoming electoral campaign, how many are ready to put this effort at their first level of requirement?
