New French President Invites Cleantech and Climate Leaders From USA To Ditch Donald Trump, USA (Video)

We’ve written a few times about how China has the opportunity (and seems to be taking it) to increase its global influence and power thanks to the Trump presidency. There are various avenues for achieving that, but the largest of them seems to be Trump’s (and the Republican Party’s) science denial and absurd ideas regarding global warming and sensible climate action.

Now, another global superpower is following suit with this opening, but much more directly. Thanks to a comment from CleanTechnica reader “Stoli Cat,” we’ve got this gem of a video from France’s new president, Emmanuel Macron.

Indeed — those of us who have paid any real attention to climate science know that we are risking the human species by not acting fast, but it’s also common knowledge now that climate and cleantech solutions are some of the biggest (or the biggest) economic drivers of the 21st century. To miss the beat on this opportunity to grow one’s global economic leadership is pure idiocy.

US solar and wind power jobs grew approximately 12 times faster than the US economy as a whole in recent years.
