"During today’s State Visit to the United States, the first state visit by a French president in nearly 20 years, France’s President Francois Hollande said, “How not to mention climate change when France next year will convene and host a conference? It’s not just about hosting a conference and having our hotels full. No, it’s about reaching a global goal, because there is a danger.”"
