What is the role of public budgets in financing the transition, including combating climate change? What impact do budgets have on people’s daily lives? 

In this episode, we travel to France to dive into the state of the country's socio ecological transition and examine the effectiveness of the government’s green policies. Our guest Emeline Notari, Ecological Transition Financing Manager of Réseau Action Climat France, joins us to discuss whether France’s green policies and their implementation have truly lived up to expectations. We explore examples of expenditures that are harmful to the climate, people and nature, and discuss just solutions such as a truly green budget and reducing damaging subsidies.

Réseau Action Climat France is the French representative of the global (CAN International) and European (CAN Europe), focusing on developing alternative and ambitious measures to combat climate change and its impacts.
