Video | Photovoltaic energy at the service of the transition, 3 minutes flat for the transition! Photovoltaics: a key solution for our energy future? You've probably seen solar panels on roofs or along roads… But do you really know their role in our energy transition? In this video, ADEME explores solar photovoltaic energy: how it works, its advantages, its challenges, and its innovations. -
Video | French forests: challenges and adaptation strategies, 3 minutes to go for the transition! French Forests: Climate Shock and Solutions to Save Them (2024). Our French forests, the green lungs of the planet, are in real danger. Covering 32% of the territory, they play a key role: storing CO₂, protecting biodiversity, filtering water, and combating erosion. -
Video | Land conservation: the future of our soils is at stake! 3 minutes to go for the transition! What if the solution to the climate crisis and biodiversity loss lay beneath our feet? Every year in France, 20.000 hectares of natural, agricultural, and forest areas disappear due to urbanization. This staggering figure, equivalent to twice the area of Paris within the city limits, illustrates the scale of soil sealing. But what are the real consequences for our environment, our society, and our daily lives? -
