The summit’s final declaration makes no mention of abandoning fossil fuels, especially oil, which are responsible for global warming.
In a warning to ‘the whole world’, Macron defends the end of the use of oil ‘well before 2050’ and of coal by 2030.
“The richest countries have to make an effort, we are doing it and it is costing us,” he said, asking emerging countries, and especially oil producers, to do their part.
