The activist said that Friends of the Earth France´s goal in these two weeks of activities in parallel to the UN COP on Climate Change is to make the voices of the people affected by this crisis heard, as well as to carry out actions to denounce the main culprits, such as big transnational corporations, and especially the French government ““which is not really acting against climate change”.
