Climate: Holland celebrates entry into force of the Paris Agreement
the 04.11.2016
François Hollande celebrated on Friday in Locminé (Morbihan) the entry into force of the Paris climate agreement by inaugurating a renewable energy center unique in Europe, the Liger project.
"November 4 is a historic day, it is the entry into force of the climate agreement, from today COP21 becomes international law", declared the head of state, then that the French presidency of COP 21 ends on November 7.
Recalling that it had taken seven years to ratify the Kyoto Protocol, François Hollande welcomed the speed of the ratification of the Paris Agreement, which took "barely 11 months". "Never has an international agreement taken such a short time to be ratified," he said.
He added that he chose the small town of Locminé to express himself, in order to show "that what we can develop at the international level, it is possible to demonstrate the reality".
With their Liger pole, the 15.000 inhabitants of the Locminé territory value two types of resources, wood and waste. They will eventually offset the 18.000 tonnes of CO2 they emit each year.
Liger, the first site in France to combine a wood boiler and anaerobic digestion unit, alone produces six types of green energy: electricity, heat, biofuel, Bio NGV fuel, biofertilizer and biomethane which will be reinjected into the gas network.

Merchant ships as cruise ships mostly use as fuel heavy fuel oil, a byproduct of petroleum, which emits large quantities of fine particles, nitrogen oxides, and especially sulfur oxides. This pollutant is one of the main factors behind the rain acidification problem and is very toxic to human health.
In a study published in early June, the University of Rostock and the research center Helmholtz Zentrum German Environment Munich establish an unambiguous link between the exhaust freighters and serious diseases. Originally lung and severe cardiovascular diseases, shipping emissions, according to this study, 60 000 cause premature deaths per year in the EU. Cost European health services: 58 billion.
