New Report: Paris Tomorrow
Paris was the birthplace of the 2015 Paris Agreement, which laid the foundations for a global commitment to climate protection. Since then, the City of Paris has prioritised the fight against climate change. By transforming public spaces to reduce motorised traffic, carrying out a large-scale renovation of buildings and committing to an ambitious energy transition to promote renewable energies and move away from fossil fuels, Paris has reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 26%. Paris has published a retrospective report, “Paris of Tomorrow” (“Paris Demain”), which reflects on sustainability actions implemented in 2024 - a landmark year for the ecological transition in Paris.
The new edition of Paris Tomorrow aims to monitor and analyze ecological and social transition in the city. Structured around 30 strategic indicators, it highlights the progress achieved so far.
For example:
- One-third reduction in CO₂ emissions since 2004 (start of GHG monitoring)
- From 35 to 45% decrease concerning the main air pollutants over the past 10 years
- 1,500 km of cycling routes developed across the city
- 1,500 cooling islands accessible to residents by 2025
- More than 130,000 trees planted since 2020
- 45% organic products served in municipal collective catering in 2024
The report also showcases concrete actions implemented in Paris in 2024, with a special focus on the Olympic Games.
Together with an online open data platform providing an update on the main indicators (in French), these two tools are designed to support decision-making, enhance transparency, and foster collective action toward carbon neutrality and resilience in Paris.
