Europa First! We want Europe to be the first to prove “grandeur nature,” to show that not only is safeguarding the climate not an obstacle to social well-being, but that the struggle against climate deregulation is a powerful means to fight against unemployment and insecurity.

Clearly, there is no single solution, but it is essential to open a debate on the financing of the energy transition through the issuance of currency.

The publication of this book will be the occasion for the launch of the campaign at the beginning of November 2017: the film by Al Gore, which opens in Europe on November 1, and the COP 23 which will be held in Bonn from 6 to 17 November, will contribute to placing the climate crisis in media headlines. The climate will again be discussed a few months later when the IPCC makes its special report available to the public. Then during the heatwaves and/or flooding of 2018, then in November 2018 when Poland hosts the COP 24…
