Presentation

In the wake of the Covid-19 epidemic, which is still far from being contained, proposals are multiplying in Europe to focus economic recovery plans on the ecological transition and the fight against climate change. A group of motivated volunteers is proposing to relaunch the activities of the " Ponts transition écologique " group (formerly the "Environnement" group).

What are its objectives?To publicize and discuss ways of building a more resilient and sober world, capable of adapting to future climate shocks and the depletion of certain resources.


Les Ponts is taking part in this major challenge of climate change, through its professional activities, its tradition of planning and its research.

In this context, the group aims to :

- Debate the economic, societal and individual challenges of the ecological transition,
- Present concrete transition actions, with the participation of personalities from diverse backgrounds,
- Stimulate our community's commitment and desire to act.

To achieve these objectives, the group will rely in particular on :

- Presentations by alumni of Les Ponts and the School's research laboratories, to highlight the work carried out there,
- The development of a network of professional clubs with similar objectives, in conjunction with alumni associations from other establishments.

As the issues are systemic, we will try as far as possible to work jointly with other Ponts Alumni professional groups.

First conferences:

We hope to welcomeMatthieu Orphelin for ourinaugural conference inautumn 2020: an engineer by training, he led a committed career with Ademe and then the Nicolas Hulot Foundation before entering politics. First elected to the Loire Atlantique Regional Council, he became an LREM deputy in 2017 to impose an ecological breath of fresh air on the new majority. Disappointed by the limited progress made, he left the party and founded a new parliamentary group, Ecologie Démocratie Solidarité (EDS), in May 2020.

OnWednesday December 2, 2020, we 'll bemeeting Michel Salem-Sermanet, a Ponts engineer and CEO of Efficacity, the R&D institute for the city's energy transition. In addition to the institute's work, Michel will present the "Alumni for the planet" initiative, which encourages all alumni of schools and universities to make a concrete commitment against global warming.
