In Paris in 2015, the international community set itself the target of limiting global warming to +2 degreesC compared with the industrial era, failing which the world will be heading for +4 to +5 degreesC by 2100, with irreversible damage to human beings, the poorest of whom will be the main victims.In view of the disorder that has already begun, mankind is looking for palliative solutions.The main cause of this disorder being the use of our energies, mainly fossil fuels, several scenarios are envisaged that could help us to avoid it.On the one hand, there's the gradual replacement of fossil fuels, in view of their importance in our daily lives, and on the other, the criticism levelled at them.All are unanimous on the ultimate necessity of transition, but preconditions such as the guarantee of equitable justice and good governance in the search for and exploitation of resources are proving necessary.In this struggle, the DRC is dependent on the necessary resources: its primary forests, its strategic minerals and its hydroelectric potential, but to be able to play this role, an environment of respect is necessary.
