Alliance climatique: un plan d’action pour son 20e anniversaire
Original
The report, published on Tuesday, covers topics such as consumer goods, industry and waste, buildings, and air and ground transport. For each theme, the Alliance identifies what it sees as the most significant barriers and how they could be overcome.
Within this framework, the organisation proposes policy measures that would lead to rapid decarbonisation, ranging from a tax on all greenhouse gases to a transformation fund for more agro-ecology and incentives for electric mobility.
The Alliance sees these measures as a contribution to the debate. Representatives of the 150 or so member organisations and partners of the Climate Alliance were involved in drawing up the concept.
The Climate Alliance was founded in 2005 and has been working ever since to ensure that “the climate becomes a key priority for politics and society”. The Alliance is made up of organisations from the environmental, church, youth, trade union and consumer protection sectors.

How we work
We select the most relevant news for an international audience and use automatic translation tools such as DeepL to translate them into English. A journalist then reviews the translation for clarity and accuracy before publication. Providing you with automatically translated news gives us the time to write more in-depth articles. The news stories we select have been written and carefully fact-checked by an external editorial team from news agencies such as Bloomberg or Keystone.
