Sun Fund Makes Renewable Energy Investment Easy for All Stakeholders
In his first supporting statement, President Macron asked the US to reject isolationism and extreme nationalism. This is important to global renewable energy investment because domestic politics influence the international business environment (in addition to, and not more important than, all the ills associated with extreme nationalism) Indeed, US President Trump imposed tariffs on imported solar panels (which, fortunately, have little effect on Sun Fund’s core business).
“I am convinced that if we decide to open our eyes wider, we will be stronger… We will overcome the dangers. We will not let the rampaging work of extreme nationalism shake a world full of hope for greater prosperity.”
Multilateralism Supports Global Renewable Energy Investment
“We can build the 21st-century world order based on a new breed of multilateralism, based on a more effective, accountable, and results-oriented multilateralism.” He added: “This requires more than ever the United States’ involvement, as your role was decisive for creating and safeguarding today’s free world. The United States is the one who invented this multilateralism. You are the one now who has to help to preserve and reinvent it.”
Macron then urged the United States to continue to pursue a worldview that includes the acceptance of man-made climate change due to the emission of greenhouse gasses after the US did not pay part of its bill at the United Nations and has embraced climate-change deniers in the Executive Branch.
“We are killing our planet,” Macron said. “Let us face it: There is no Planet B.”
The Paris Agreement
“I am sure one day the United States will come back and join the Paris agreement.” “It is true to say that this agreement may not address all concerns and very important concerns — this is true — but we should not abandon it without having something substantial and more substantial instead,” Macron said. “That’s my position.”
“Our people cherish the friendship of the American people with as much intensity as ever,” Macron said.
