Few words about ADEME
- ADEME = French agency for environment and energy
management
- Created in 1992 from 3 existing agencies (waste, air quality and
energy management)
- Public agency under the joint authority of :
the Ministry of Ecology, Sustainable Development and Energy the Ministry for National Education, Higher Education and Research
- ADEME is involved in the implementation of public policies in the
areas of environment, energy and sustainable development.
- Objectives :
to provide expertise and advisory services to businesses, local authorities, government bodies and the public at large to enable them to establish and consolidate their environmental action
About 1 000 workers
- 3 main sites (~50%)
- 26 regional directions
to cover all the France

2017 Budget: 590 M€ 3% for Air pollution & Noise abatement
Air Quality Impact
A major public health concern
- PM linked to life expectancy reduction of 8,2 months in France
- October 2013: the World health organisation recognized outdoor air pollution
and PM as carcinogenic to humans
- PM short-term exposure Increase cardio-pulmonary morbidity and mortality
PM long-term exposure Encourage asthma emergence in adults, chronic
- bstructive airway diseases and impaired development of lung function in
children, cardiovascular diseases and lung cancers.
- Outdoor air pollution would cost 20-30 billion € per year (i.e. 400 à 500
€/inhabitant - source CGDD), including 0,8 à 1,7 billion € directly supported by the health care system.
- We need to act :
- To reduce GHG and atmospheric pollutants
- Quickly
- To improve the global situation and crisis (peaks of
pollution)
- But now, it’s more difficult to reduce the
emissions than in the past because of :
- Much more diffuse emissions (wood heating,
transport, agriculture)
- Lower emissions levels
- Technological improvements are made ≠
behaviour of the public at large scale Need of action : At national level and at local scale On all concerned sectors
How do we act ?
By funding projects, from research to implementation
- Support innovation and research
Thesis, call for R&D projects, investments for the future To better understand pollutants To understand the link between emissions and concentrations To find technical solutions to reduce or to treat emissions To improve cross-disciplinary approach
- Support local authorities
Feasibilities studies To implement actions
- Encourage and impulse behaviour change of individuals
