France Nation Verte: Ecological Plan

2022PolicyAdaptation, Mitigation
Sectors: Economy-wide, Environment, Health
This document details how the concept of ecological planning, promoted by the government, should 1) enable green objectives to be declined sector by sector and territory by territory, 2) define specific actions, and 3) provide the means to reach the objectives. The five core goals that organise the document are the following:

  • Reduce greenhouse gas emissions and limit the effects of climate change;
  • Adapt to the inevitable consequences of climate change;
  • Restore biodiversity;
  • Reduce the exploitation of  natural resources to a sustainable rate;
  • Reduce all pollution that affects health.

Seven transversal projects are launched in parallel:
  • Funding that makes it possible to define credible and coherent investment trajectories
  • Territorial planning and differentiation according to the characteristics and specificities of each territory, including overseas territories
  • The transition of sectors with the management of jobs, training and skills
  • Environmental data
  • Exemplary public services
  • Just transition and accompanying measures, to leave no one behind
  • The sobriety of uses and resources.

The General Secretariat to Ecological Planning (SGPE) is created and placed under the authority of the Prime Minister.
Examples:
Resilient infrastructure, Fossil fuel divestment, Net zero growth plan, Sustainable fishing
