Science Bar: “Why Is Science Going Green?”

Le Grand Café de la Poste, Place de Verdun – 66000 Perpignan.

For more than a decade, climate change has been a major focus of scientific research and political and public debate.

Like all sectors of society, scientific research is facing questions about how to make the necessary transition to reduce its carbon footprint. More and more labs are seeking to measure and reduce their environmental impacts while maintaining the quality of their research projects.

In the context of a global climate emergency, the academic community has a role to play in generating knowledge, providing education, and raising general awareness of these issues.

This Science Bar is organized in partnership with the Occitanie Est Science and Society Coordination and led by the University of Perpignan.

To discuss this topic, several experts from various disciplines will come together and answer questions from the audience live:

• Marie-Agnès COURTY, Geologist, Director of the “ Research ” at the CNRS, PROMES Laboratory;
• Jean-Marc MOULIN, Professor of Law, UPVD, CDED Research Laboratory;
• Régis OLIVES, Professor of Engineering Sciences, UPVD, PROMES Laboratory;
• Marion PODESTA, Associate Professor authorized to supervise research in Economics, UPVD, ART-DEV Laboratory.
