Climate emergency: diplomacy is dead, long live the law!
We did not expect anything for this 26th COP in Glasgow, and we were disappointed anyway! Let's summarize. The Heads of State of the world were supposed to re-commit themselves (as since the first COP 25 years ago) to a 45% decrease of global greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 (Paris Agreement). Instead, if nothing changes between now and then, we will be entitled to an increase of 16%, or a projection of + 2.7°C at least by 2100. In short, we face a scheduled genocide for biodiversity, and that includes ourselves. This says a lot about the value of the words of politicians.

The false beliefs of CSR
Environmental Sustainability
What if we stopped pretending to want to change things? The effects of global warming and the mass extinction of biodiversity are now manifesting themselves all over the planet with unprecedented intensity. While we know that climate disasters will increase in frequency and severity long after anthropogenic GHG emissions have ended, can we continue to believe the fables of a development model that denies planetary limits? Let us ask ourselves the question sincerely.
