The Paris Climate protection Plan, adopted by the City Council in October 2007, is the result of both a community expression of views and the thorough assessment of economic players, various local institutions and city administration departments. As such, it bears witness to a strong and collective commitment from Paris and its inhabitants.
This strong commitment is based on a “factor 4” approach and aims to result in 75% less greenhouse gas emissions from its own activities and those in Paris by 2050 compared to 2004.
Its targets are ambitious:
25% less greenhouse gas emissions in Paris
25% less energy consumption in Paris
25% of Paris’s energy consumption to come from renewable energy sources
