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 every other sector of society, scientific research is facing questions about how to transition toward reducing its carbon footprint. More and more laboratories are seeking to measure and reduce their environmental impact 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, teaching, and raising public 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, a panel of experts from various fields will gather and answer questions from the audience live:

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