Urb-En Pact (urban energy pact) is an URBACT network that gathers 8 european cities with the same objective : becoming a net-zero energy territory by 2050. The method used to do so is simple : increasing the production of “green” and local energy while decreasing our energy consumption. Easier said than done but the common determination of all the partners and our skateholders is a key factor of success.
Cities are in the driving seat to tackle the climate change. It is about the future of our planet and of all those who will inhabit it.
And who’s the future of our planet ? Children !
That’s why they are at the heart of the video of presentation of the Urban Energy Pact network. Children are the future and the today’s responsibility is to leave them a healthy, a healthier planet.
In the video, they talk about energy with innocence, spontaneity and sometimes with accuracy but always with the smile !
Their words are a motivation to act, to pact, to react before the challenges of tomorrow that we have to adress starting today.
The video is a glimpse of the diversity of our network. Diversity of landscapes, of languages, of names... A diversity rhyming with open-mindness and richness.
