Sustainable Development Week

From May 29 up to June 4th, it will be the Sustainable Development Week (see http://info.france2.fr/france/21541929-fr.php).

Le dévelopement durable c'est "Une manière d'inciter citoyens, collectivités et entreprises à changer leurs habitudes pour ménager la planète et le climat. Le concept, issu du Sommet de la Terre à Rio en 1992, semble mieux connu du grand public: il s'agit de combiner croissance économique, progrès social et préservation de l'environnement. " See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainable_development

Sustainable Development will be at the heart of the leader's issues of this century. Therefore I believe it's important to think about it. Many other think so, by the way. Today in l'Echo there was an article on special houses wich work like a "thermos" and which allow substantial energy cost savings in Germany.
