The Ecological Revolution for the Living (REV; French: Révolution écologique pour le vivant) is a minor political party in France, founded in 2018 by Aymeric Caron, who was elected in 2022 as its sole Member of Parliament.
Aymeric Caron expressed that The Greens lost its legitimacy to take care of the ecological crisis by embracing capitalistic values of the market instead of focusing on what is actually important.
[1][2] Upon taking office, Caron, who became the party's sole Member of Parliament, chose to sit with the La France Insoumise group rather than as an independent.
[3] REV is an explicitly vegan political party claiming to refuse "the exploitation and the slaughter of non-human animals to satisfy morbid and unnecessary food cravings.
It advocates for a 28-hour workweek, a strengthening of the national healthcare system, public banking, a tax on financial transactions, and a maximum income of €480,000 a year.
After Emmanuel Macron's decision to have early legislatives elections, the REV naturally sided with the New Popular Front, a new alliance negotiated on what remained of the NUPES.
