Nicolas Jacques André Hulot (French pronunciation:[nikɔlaʒakɑ̃dʁeylo]; born 30 April 1955) is a French journalist and environmental activist. He is the founder and honorary president of the Nicolas Hulot Foundation, an environmental group established in 1990.
Hulot ran as a candidate in the primary for the Europe Ecology – The Greens (EELV) party in 2011, but lost to Eva Joly in the second round. He declined offers to be a government minister for Jacques Chirac, Nicolas Sarkozy and François Hollande,[1] but in May 2017, he agreed to serve under Emmanuel Macron and was appointed Minister of Ecological and Solidary Transition in the first government of Prime Minister Édouard Philippe.[2] In August 2018, he announced his resignation from the Second Philippe government, citing policy disagreements and leadership issues.[3]
Hulot is an officer in the Legion of Honour and a knight in the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres.
