Parade du Grotesque 💀Probably because this is all BS on the part of the French government.
Macron talks a good talk - but rarely walks the walk.

While I'm aware of macron's uh, unique approach to governance, let's say, they have absolutely followed through on the ban on short flights in France. This is entirely in line with that.

And his government has passed the most regressive ecological laws ever.
Even the short haul flight ban you mentioned could have been done much better and, especially, extended to private jets and 5h flights.
Once again, do not confuse governmental propaganda for a serious commitment to the protection of the environment.
