Planning concrete measures for a just transition

The new French 2030 climate target of at least 50% greenhouse gas emission does not comply with a Paris-compatible 1.5°C trajectory. At least 65% emissions reductions by 2030 should be achieved for France to take its fair share of climate action. Also, the pathway to reach 2030 should be clear and quite ambitious. For now, France has a history of keeping the 2030 target but shifting the intermediary targets, which postpone public action.
