Christophe Béchu expects a “15% savings” thanks to the good practices of the French to reduce their energy consumption
“All gestures have an impact,” insisted Christophe Béchu in reference to the Government’s request to the French to make “a citizen effort” in their energy consumption.
“We expect a 15% saving with good practices” by consumers, announced the Minister for the Ecological Transition.
“Everyone is responsible, except those in popular neighborhoods than those with more media and high carbon footprint,” explained the member of the executive.
“Each one must make efforts according to their carbon footprint,” he concluded.
“The Ministry of Ecological Transition is not destined to put out fires”: Béchu defends himself from his absence
Guest of RTL, Christophe Béchu, Minister of Ecological Transition and Territorial Cohesion, wanted to silence the criticism against him for his absence in the field and his silence in the period of heat wave that the country is experiencing.
The role of his ministry is not to be on the ground in the Gironde devastated by the fires, “but rather that of prevention.” “The Ministry of Ecological Transition is not meant to put out fires,” he explained.
“Train (the actors, editor’s note), mobilize and ensure that through the consultation we commit to these issues”, that is his job, he declared.
“I was appointed just a few weeks ago,” he said.
Purchasing power: MEPs have improved pensions and social benefits
The deputies voted on Wednesday night the revaluation of 4% of pensions and social benefits, but they also unbundled the Disabled Adult Allowance (AAH) in a rare moment of almost unanimity from the beginning, laborious and conflictive, of the debates in the Assembly on the bill in favor of purchasing power.
The revaluation article registered 296 votes in favor, 103 abstentions and two votes against, the latter issued by two socialist deputies. It will enter into force as of July 1, 2022, retroactively, without waiting for the annual automatic revaluation date.
