INTERVIEW
"The Prime Minister was against this initiative from the start," said Cyril Dion, author and director of the documentary Tomorrow, guarantor of the Citizen's Climate Convention, guest of the Grand Rendez-vous on Europe 1. "He has said it since the beginning. He says it off. He has shown very little enthusiasm for this initiative. "
"He seemed to assume that asking citizens for their opinion was not so much a good idea," insisted Cyril Dion. "That it was rather the role of elected officials to work on these subjects. The problem is that these elected representatives should have taken it for 30 years, do not do it and do not move forward as it should. "
He recalls in passing that estimates "from the largest French climatology laboratories" estimate global warming at + 7 ° C at the end of the century. "If the Prime Minister considers that elected officials have been doing their work on the subject for 30 years, great! Me, I think not," insisted the director.
