After authorities prohibited planned street marches during the state of emergency following the November 2015 attacks, climate groups organized alternative public actions, including human chains and symbolic installations. Activists also gathered at Place de la République despite the ban. The episode exposed a conflict between security restrictions and the right to protest, while keeping climate justice visible during the COP21 summit. Organizers argued that climate impacts and the transition away from fossil fuels raise questions of global inequality and responsibility.
