À l’occasion de sa venue en France, l’Iddri, en partenariat avec les chaires Développement durable et Mercosur de Sciences Po, sont heureux de vous inviter à une conférence de Marcelo Poppe (Centre for Strategic Management and Studies, CGEE).
"Three quarters of the world’s energy supplies come from fossil fuels. They are responsible for large local pollution loads and for most of the greenhouse gas emissions. The scale on which they are being used will quickly lead to their depletion, and energy consumption should grow as a result of the advance of many of the world’s developing regions. Industrialized countries have not succeeded in reducing fossil energy use without compromising the quality of life, even though it is known that this can and must be done. Sugarcane bioethanol & bioelectricity can contribute as fuel for sustainable development. The challenge, therefore, is to seek renewable energy sources and to increase efficiencies in energy generation and use on an unprecedented scale."
