Save
the climate

Scientific analyses, rational solutions.

Together, let us contribute to proactive,
effective policies to fight global warming.

OUR MISSION

Sauvons le Climat (Save the Climate) is an independent association created in 2004 under the French law of 1901 whose aim is to produce, share and promote scientific and rational analyses for leaders, decision-makers and the general public, so that they can draw up and implement rational, proactive and effective policies to fight global warming.

17th Sauvons le Climat Summer School

From Tuesday October 7, 2025 Afternoon to Friday October 10, 2025 Morning
Location: BREST (29200)

OCEANS: CLIMATE & ENERGY

The ocean plays a key role in climate dynamics, as a carbon sink, as a heat reservoir, as a source of energy and life. It had potential to contribute to climate change mitigation and adaptation.

Yet climate change has a major impact on the ocean and its ecosystems, on maritime activities and on coastal populations. Furthermore, pollution and pressures of anthropogenic origin are threatening its health …

… however, the ocean remains a source of hope as it can help limit the climate and biodiversity crises.

All these aspects will be addressed over the 4 days of this Summer School, with presentations by a wide range of stakeholders in the sector, and site visits.

France “ON Track” to Meet its CO2 Target. Really?

Health Costs of the Different Energy Sources

By Roland Masse

At a time when there is growing awareness of the need to control and reduce the impact of human activities on the environment, the production and use of energy are coming under close scrutiny. The impact of the various energy sources on public health is an essential aspect that is addressed in the paper titled “Health Costs of Energy” by Roland Masse.
