He declined offers to be a government minister for [[Jacques Chirac]], [[Nicolas Sarkozy]] and [[François Hollande]],<ref name=":0">{{Cite news|url=http://www.lepoint.fr/politique/remaniement-nicolas-hulot-dit-non-a-françois-hollande-04-02-2016-2015460_20.php|title=Nicolas Hulot ne sera pas ministre!|date=4 February 2016|work=Le Point|access-date=5 June 2021|language=fr-FR}}</ref> but in May 2017, he agreed to serve under [[Emmanuel Macron]] and was appointed [[Ministry of the Ecological Transition (France)|Minister of Ecological and Solidary Transition]] in the [[First Philippe government|first government]] of Prime Minister [[Édouard Philippe]].<ref name="reuters-20170517">{{cite news |url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-france-election-government-energy/green-activist-hulot-named-french-ecology-minister-edf-stock-slumps-idUSKCN18D1UB |title=Green activist Hulot named French ecology minister, EDF stock slumps |author=Geert De Clercq, Benjamin Mallet |publisher=Reuters |date=17 May 2017 |access-date=7 February 2018 |quote=Hulot's job title, "minister of ecology and solidarity", does not mention energy, but government sources told Reuters he will be responsible for energy matters.}}</ref> In August 2018, he announced his resignation from the [[Second Philippe government]], citing policy disagreements and leadership issues.<ref name="resignation independent">{{cite news |last1=Stone |first1=Jon |title=Emmanuel Macron's environment minister dramatically quits live on air, questioning president's green credentials |url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/nicolas-hulot-quits-france-emmanuel-macron-environment-resigns-green-a8510606.html |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220620/https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/nicolas-hulot-quits-france-emmanuel-macron-environment-resigns-green-a8510606.html |archive-date=20 June 2022 |url-access=subscription |url-status=live |access-date=28 August 2018 |work=[[The Independent]] | date=28 August 2018}}</ref>

Hulot is an officer in the [[Legion of Honour]] and a knight in the [[Ordre des Arts et des Lettres]]. In 2021, he announced his retirement from public life in response to a documentary outlining a series of sexual assault allegations against him.

== Early life ==

Hulot was born 30 April 1955 in [[Lille]] to Monique Marguerite Marie Hulot (née Moulun), a [[pharmaceutical sales representative]], and Philippe Marie Joseph Hulot, a gold miner in Venezuela. Hulot had one brother, Gonzaga, and a sister, Beatrice.

Hulot's father Philippe died when Hulot was fifteen years old. Gonzaga Hulot committed suicide on 24 December 1974 when Hulot was 19 years old.<ref name=":1">{{Cite news|url=http://www.lexpress.fr/actualite/politique/la-premi-egrave-re-vie-de-nicolas-hulot_479095.html?p=2|title=La première vie de Nicolas Hulot|date=13 December 2006|work=LExpress.fr|access-date=22 July 2017|language=fr}}</ref>

Hulot took up rallying as a hobby when he was growing up and took part in the 1980 [[Dakar Rally]], though he didn't finish the race due to difficulties with his vehicle.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.dakardantan.com/paris-dakar-1980/hulot-batifoulier-flory,range+rover+v8,206.html|title=Nicolas HULOT / Jean-paul FLORY / Etienne-georges BATIFOULIER – RANGE ROVER V8 n°206 – Paris Dakar 1980|last=Lourseau|first=Sébastien|website=www.dakardantan.com|language=fr|access-date=22 July 2017}}</ref>

== Early career ==
From 1973 to 1978, Hulot worked as an [[Photojournalism|agency photographer]] for [[Sipa Press]] where he documented the [[1976 Guatemala earthquake]] and interviewed [[Ian Smith]] during the [[Rhodesian Bush War]].<ref name=":1" />

Hulot left Sipa Press in 1978 to move to [[France Inter]] after being offered work as a radio journalist and producer. Hulot debuted on television during the children's program ''Les Visiteurs du mercredi.''<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.ina.fr/video/I08332235/nicolas-hulot-animateur-des-visiteurs-du-mercredi-video.html|title=Nicolas Hulot animateur des Visiteurs du mercredi|date=10 September 1980|website=Institut National de l’Audiovisuel|language=fr-FR|access-date=22 July 2017}}</ref> Hulot also presented the short-lived educational programme ''Les Pieds au mur.''<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.toutelatele.com/les-pieds-au-mur-48108|title=Les Pieds au mur – Emissions TV|website=www.toutelatele.com|date=25 March 2013 |access-date=22 July 2017}}</ref> Following this, Hulot became an evening reporter focusing on motorcycle events. Hulot left France Inter in 1987.

Hulot presented the television programme, ''Ushuaïa, le magazine de l'extrême'' which was focused around extreme sport and natural landscapes throughout the world. The programme was broadcast on [[TF1]] and was co-produced by Hulot's then-girlfriend Dominique Cantien. ''Ushuaïa, le magazine de l'extrême'' made Hulot a [[Celebrity|household name]] in France. ''Ushuaïa, le magazine de l'extrême'' ran from 1987 to 1995. Hulot went on to present Opération Okavango (1996–1997) and ''Ushuaïa Nature'' (1998–2012).<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.fondation-nature-homme.org/fondation/organisation/lequipe-fnh/nicolas-hulot|title=Nicolas Hulot|website=Fondation Nicolas Hulot|date=18 May 2015|access-date=22 July 2017}}</ref>{{failed verification|date=June 2021}} Hulot's contract with TF1 ended in December 2011 though four of the remaining ''Ushuaïa Nature'' episodes aired in 2012.

== Fondation Nicolas Hulot ==
[[File:Fondation pour la Nature et l'Homme (logo).jpg|thumb|Logo of the Nicolas Hulot Foundation for Nature and Man]]

In 1990, Hulot founded the ''Ushuaia Foundation'' which became La Fondation Nicolas-Hulot pour la nature et l'homme in 1995 and which changed its name to La Fondation pour la nature et l'homme (The Foundation for Nature and Mankind) in April 2011.

Hulot and [[Gérard Feldzer]], a former French airline pilot, experimented with [[airship]] prototypes originally developed by Didier Costes in 1992, and in 1993, the pair attempted to cross the Atlantic Ocean from [[Spain]] using an airship with pedals. The pair made it as far as 1,500&nbsp;km before failing near the [[Cape Verde]] Islands.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.liberation.fr/societe/2008/09/28/la-traversee-de-la-manche-en-dirigeable-a-pedales_109825|title=La traversée de la Manche en dirigeable à pédales|work=Libération.fr|access-date=22 July 2017|language=fr}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://c.i.e.l.pagesperso-orange.fr/historique.htm|title=Le passé|website=Compétitions Internationales d'Engins Légers|access-date=5 June 2021}}</ref>

Hulot set up partnerships for the Foundation with companies such as [[Électricité de France|EDF]], [[L'Oréal]] and [[TF1]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.fondation-nature-homme.org/ils-nous-soutiennent/ils-nous-soutiennent|title=Ils nous soutiennent|website=Fondation Nicolas Hulot|date=17 July 2015|access-date=5 June 2021}}</ref> In 2006, the [[National Museum of Natural History (France)|National Museum of Natural History]] formed a partnership with ''La Fondation pour la nature et l'homme'', organising annual events to bring people together to [[climate change mitigation|combat climate change]].<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.sciencesetavenir.fr/nature-environnement/recherche-detective-ecolo_6333|title=Recherche détective écolo|work=Sciences et Avenir|access-date=22 July 2017|language=fr}}</ref>

In 2013, the foundation launched a [[think tank]] based around ecology.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.fondation-nature-homme.org/espace-presse/cp_lancement_think_tank_fnh_300113_TT.pdf|title=Espace presse|work=Fondation pour la Nature et l'Homme créée par Nicolas Hulot|access-date=22 July 2017}}</ref>

== Political activities ==

In 2007, Nicolas Hulot told candidates in the [[2007 French presidential election|presidential election]] that he would stand as a candidate if ecology were not one of the main themes of the election. Some polls estimated his support at around 15%.{{citation needed|date=May 2017}} In response to his announcement, five of the twelve candidates in the election, including [[Nicolas Sarkozy]], signed his ''Pacte écologique'' (ecology pact), stating that ecological issues would be central to all future political decisions.<ref>[http://www.pacte-ecologique-2007.org/nicolas-hulot/pages/02_candidats/02_00_candidats.php Le Pacte écologique de Nicolas Hulot] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100111122221/http://www.pacte-ecologique-2007.org/nicolas-hulot/pages/02_candidats/02_00_candidats.php |date=11 January 2010 }}</ref>

For the [[2012 French presidential election|French presidential election of 2012]], Nicolas Hulot stated that he had voted for the [[Left Front (France)|Left Front]]'s candidate, [[Jean-Luc Mélenchon]], during the first round. He said he found Melenchon more efficient on environmental issues than Joly. He supported [[François Hollande]] in the second round.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.leparisien.fr/election-presidentielle-2012/candidats/video-presidentielle-hulot-a-vote-melenchon-au-1er-tour-hollande-au-second-20-06-2012-2057715.php|title=VIDEO: Hulot a voté Mélenchon, Joly "heureuse qu'il ait découvert la gauche"|date=20 June 2012|work=Le Parisien|access-date=5 June 2021}}</ref>

=== Minister for the Ecological and Inclusive Transition ===

On 17 May 2017, he was appointed [[Ministry of Ecology, Sustainable Development and Energy|Minister for the Ecological and Inclusive Transition]]. This is following Hulot turning down offers for ministerial positions from [[Jacques Chirac]], [[Nicolas Sarkozy]] and [[François Hollande]]'s governments.<ref name=":0" /> The position's responsibilities are focused around climate, air pollution, energy and transport. (The latter being done in collaboration with Transport minister, [[Élisabeth Borne]].)<ref>{{Citation|title=Décret n° 2017-1071 du 24 mai 2017 relatif aux attributions du ministre d'Etat, ministre de la transition écologique et solidaire|date=24 May 2017|url=https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/affichTexte.do?cidTexte=JORFTEXT000034807059&dateTexte=&categorieLien=id|access-date=22 July 2017}}</ref>

On 28 August 2018, Hulot resigned as Minister of Ecology during a live interview on [[France Inter]] radio, citing [[President of France|President]] [[Emmanuel Macron]]'s record on environmental issues and his own frustration over feeling alone in prioritising reform.<ref name="resignation independent" /> He said that his time in office had been an "accumulation of disappointments",<ref name="resignation independent" /> and that he did not want to "create the illusion that we're facing up to these challenges".<ref name="resignation reuters">{{Cite news|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-france-politics/popular-french-environment-minister-quits-in-blow-to-macron-idUSKCN1LD0K0|title=Popular French environment minister quits in blow to Macron|last1=Frost|first1=Laurence|date=28 August 2018|work=[[Reuters]] | access-date=28 August 2018|last2=De Clercq|first2=Geert}}</ref> ''[[The Guardian]]'' wrote that "Hulot's departure is a major blow to Macron and calls into question the president's credibility on the environment".<ref name="resignation guardian">{{Cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/aug/28/french-environment-minister-quits-live-on-radio-with-anti-macron-broadside|title=French environment minister quits live on radio with anti-Macron broadside|last=Chrisafis|first=Angelique|date=28 August 2018|newspaper=[[The Guardian]] | access-date=28 August 2018}}</ref>

== Assessment ==
Hulot has been criticised by some commentators, like ''[[Le Canard enchaîné]]'' and supporters of [[uneconomic growth]] and [[political ecology]], who have criticised his use of the media and acceptance of funds from large firms, like [[Électricité de France|EDF]], [[L'Oréal]] and [[Rhône-Poulenc]].<ref>[http://www.decroissance.org/index.php?chemin=textes/hulot.htm "Nicolas Hulot, le Pacte médiatique, de Sophie Divry sur decroissance.org"]</ref><ref>{{cite news|trans-title=Don't be shy, Mr Hulot!|title=Ne soyez pas timide, M.
