Climate: the youth marches mobilized much less than in 2019 – Le Monde

It’s a fail. The new world day of strikes for the climate failed to mobilize young people in France, where the movement brought together, on Friday September 23, only a few hundred people at most in large cities, far from the tens of thousands. of demonstrators in 2019. In Paris, the procession organized by Fridays for Future France brought together between two hundred and three hundred people in the afternoon, according to a journalist from Agence France-Presse (AFP), far from the thousand and six hundred demonstrators registered in March. In March 2019, the first world march brought together between twenty-nine thousand and forty thousand people. Another march is however planned for Sunday in the capital, as well as in several cities, organized this time by the Youth for Climate France movement. “To those who want to pollute the world, young people respond: resistance,” chanted the demonstrators, joined by political activists from the Young Ecologists or La France insoumise. “The movement is turning into anger,” said Green MP Sandrine Rousseau, who came to support the young people mobilized. “We absolutely need them, because inside the National Assembly there is a form of ignorance of the seriousness of climate change,” she denounced. “When it’s melted, it’s screwed up” Fridays for Future France also called for marking this world day by demonstrating at 11:30 a.m. in front of the town halls instead of going to class. In Lille, a hundred young people gathered in front of the town hall, armed with placards “When it’s melted, it’s screwed up”, “Nature is not just a wallpaper” or “Act now or swim later” (“act now or swim later”), noted AFP. “We are not here to skip class (…), but to revive the cause; it’s a bit dead after the Covid, ”said Fannie Grandin, a student who has participated in the movement since her college years in Lille.

After the shortness of breath caused by [l’épidémie de] Covid, the catastrophic summer we have experienced has remobilized us and we are ready to continue until we obtain victories for the climate, that is to say the respect of the Paris agreements”, he added. . Other marches launched by Fridays for Future France were scheduled for late Friday afternoon, notably in Bordeaux and Toulouse. The organization does not plan to repeat these strikes every Friday and is considering other forms of mobilization in the long term. Action against private jets Changing their mode of action, activists from Youth for Climate France have chosen to block, for one hour on Friday, the entrance to a site of TotalEnergies, denouncing a mega oil project in Uganda recently criticized by the European Parliament. Activists “no longer hold their signs sitting in front of places of political power, as Greta Thunberg did, but block capitalism’s places of power: multinationals specializing in fossil fuels”, justified in a press release the organization. At Le Bourget, near Paris, activists from Attac and Extinction Rebellion blocked a business airport terminal, to denounce “the climate crimes of the ultra-rich” who use private jets. Twenty activists, some dressed in white coats, positioned themselves to block access to a terminal which was covered in red paint, noted an AFP journalist. “In terms of take-offs and landings, there is no impact,” said a spokesperson for Groupe ADP (formerly Aéroports de Paris). 🔴 Action in progress “Climate crime zone” Activists @xrFrance and @attac_fr are blocking the terminal from where deco… https://t.co/l7IXvdUnoz— arkokabi (@Alexandre-Reza Kokabi) “Private jets are is the symbol of a way of life which destroys the planet”, estimated on the spot Annick Coupé, spokesperson for the association Attac. “We want to stop the climate crimes of the ultra-rich,” she explained. Private jets have been the subject of controversy for several months, with environmental activists calling for their supervision, or even their ban. The delegate minister responsible for transport, Clément Beaune, said he was ready, at the end of August, to “act and [à] regulate private jet flights. But this proposal, which could be considered at European level, was not taken up at the top of the State. The Fridays for Future movement, launched by Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, had called for rallies around the world, on social networks, on the last day of the United Nations General Assembly. In Berlin, the organizers estimated at thirty-six thousand the number of people who demonstrated in the city center, against twenty-two thousand according to the local authorities. The march recorded, as in France, a clear disaffection compared to 2019: the organizers had then claimed two hundred and seventy thousand participants, according to Deutsche Welle.
