Yannick Jadot, the ecological senator, has criticized former Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes president Laurent Wauquiez for his climate skepticism, particularly regarding the candidacy of France to host the 2030 Winter Olympics. Jadot argues that Wauquiez’s support for artificial snow-making undermines the urgent need to address climate change, especially in regions facing rapid warming. He also advocates for a territorial referendum on hosting the Olympics, emphasizing the importance of preserving the region’s natural beauty and promoting tourism in all seasons.
