Real life
It's a mixed bag. Les Échos headlined on Friday the 7th: "The CAC's lag behind other global indices is worsening." Not at all for Le Figaro , which headlined on Monday: "Despite the crises, the CAC 40 giants are in good health; despite a difficult year marked by economic and political turmoil , major French companies return to growth and profits in the third quarter."
What to think, what to believe? Perhaps the figures. BNP Paribas' profits rose by 6.1%, Crédit Agricole by 11.4%, and Société Générale by 11.3%. And as COP30 takes place, we can consider the results of TotalEnergies, which, according to Le Figaro , saw "its quarterly profits jump 61% to $3.7 billion thanks to the growth in its hydrocarbon production." We recall CEO Patrick Pouyanné's response to climatologist Jean Jouzel in a public debate: " I know and respect the opinion of scientists, the problem is that there's real life. "
Climate justice is our fight. It's the fight that links environmental and social struggles to counter a capitalist system that exploits everything: life, the planet, our humanity.
There is no such thing as fate.
- We expose the manipulations of lobbyists.
- We are challenging the deadly climate denials.
- We highlight initiatives aimed at reducing environmental inequalities and social divisions.
