Fran\u00e7ois Grosse argues along the same lines in this article in our second instalment in the series devoted to climate and energy questions. He argues for the rapid establishment of \u2018circular metropolises\u2019 in France, to transform the economy and modes of life as quickly as possible, so as to respond to the challenges posed by the target of keeping global warming below 2\u00b0C to end of the century.\n\nAfter showing how massive and urgent these challenges are (and how, by failing to take account of indirect, imported emissions, they are largely underestimated in France) and how the French strategy fails to represent a coherent response, Fran\u00e7ois Grosse shows that it has become essential to act at the level where it is possible to do so \u2014&nbsp;<em>i.e.<\/em> where all the actors can invest their intelligence and energies in an effective collaborative project. So it is at the level of metropolises and their immediate peripheries \u2014&nbsp;going far beyond the \u2018sustainable city\u2019 notion that has emerged in recent decades&nbsp;\u2014 and by developing genuine circular metropolises, that it will be possible to achieve the objectives necessary for a genuine ecological transition, considered from all angles, and thus radically transform the socio-economic system to make it compatible with our ecosystem.<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Jean Ha\u00ebntjens again stressed in our January-February 2020 issue, in the face of states\u2019 slow reactions, if not indeed inertia, in the battle against climate change, local tiers of government \u2014&nbsp;and cities in particular&nbsp;\u2014 might well take charge and become \u2018powerhouses\u2019 for states by undertaking concrete initiatives.
