Objective : Decarbonisation, featuring Jean Jouzel

News - Intro image
On April 19th, NetworkIrlande organised a roundtable discussion to address different routes to decarbonisation with Jean Jouzel as keynote speaker.

Decarbonisation was a very pertinent and appropriate theme for our event on April 19th as so many of our member companies are dedicated to reducing carbon emissions and make it a priority to provide strategies and solutions to ensure a sustainable future. We were delighted to highlight some of these member companies in our expert roundtable with Ana Dubois, Group head of ESG and Carbon Reduction at Amarenco, Gavin O'Riain, Executive Director at Ecocem Global, Morgane Yvergnieux, Sustainable Sourcing and Regenerative Agriculture at Pernod Ricard and Pierre Yves Burlot, Sustainability Director at our host, Séché Environnement. The roundtable was very effectively moderated by Bastien Nossek, Senior Consultant at Carbone 4 who talked the panellists through the issues facing their respective industries and the solutions and strategies they are each putting in place to decarbonate.

We were very honoured to welcome the preeminent climatologist, Vetlesen prize winner, ex-vice president of the IPCC (GIEC) and truly inspirational, Mr. Jean Jouzel, who shared with us his wisdom on climate change, the environment and some of the salient points from the most recent report published by the IPCC which stands out in the fact that what was once hypothesis has now become a certainty and doing nothing is simply no longer an option if we wish to secure a liveable and sustainable future for all.

Guests were treated to an amazing 360° view of Paris from the impressive Tour de Montparnasse offices of our hosts Séché Environnement while enjoying a champagne reception after the main event. Mr Maxime Séché generously gifted all guests with a copy of Mr. Jouzel's latest book 'Jean Jouzel - Entretiens' , personally and patiently autographed individually on site by the author himself - the icing on the cake for a truly exceptional evening.

Stay tuned for further sound bites and take aways from the event to be published shortly.
