Hundreds of trials: new figures on judicial crackdown on climate activists
Original: Des centaines de procès et des peines qui s’alourdissent : les chiffres inédits sur la répression judiciaire des militan
New figures show hundreds of court cases against environmental activists in France, with sentences growing heavier over time. The data, highlighted by green media outlet Vert.eco, offers an unprecedented quantitative picture of judicial repression targeting ecology movements. Campaigners say the trend signals increasing criminalisation of peaceful protest, while prosecutors point to escalating tactics like blockades and property damage.
Why now: Concern over mounting legal action and tougher sentences against climate activists in France is drawing renewed attention to civil liberties and protest rights.
