No actual change to the climate and global emissions but it looks good on paper!

I can’t speak for France but here in the United States the use of coal has absolutely fallen off a cliff since 2008. It’s down by nearly 60% since then and overall coal use is about what it was in 1965.

Edit: Coal production is also down by about the same amount. So maybe France is playing the “raise it before lowering it” game but that’s not happening in all of the G7 nations.
