Climate Denial

<p>Is it possible to subsidize fossil fuels on the one hand while at the same time claiming to be committed to the fight against global warming? </p><p>Is it possible to promote free trade treaties throughout the world while claiming that CO2 emissions must be reduced? </p><p>Can we use indicators that only take into account market production without taking into account pollution?</p><p>In view of the climate challenge the answer to these questions should be negative but unfortunately today it is still positive. In a documented clear and incisive book Thomas Porcher and Henri Landes denounce this climate hypocrisy. In the last chapter they present 10 proposals to meet the climate challenge. </p><p>Instead of all the great speeches on climate this book reminds us of the sad reality of recent years-an unprecedented development of polluting energies with unconventional gas and oil a blind trust in non-existent solutions from the market to fight against climate change hundreds of free trade treaties being negotiated without climate clauses inadequate measurement indicators that encourage business as usual.</p>
