Fight against climate change: the Rungis market and Orly airport unite for an ecological transition in heating and transport

Ecological transition: Rungis MIN and Orly airport join forces

\n\nDespite their different fields of activity, the MIN from Rungis (National Interest Market), commercial heart of the Paris region andOrly airport, an important gateway to international travel, have decided to join forces to contribute to the ecological transition. For several years, these two major entities have started to make significant changes to reduce their carbon footprint.\n\n

Heating: Rungis and Orly explore sustainable approaches

\n\nThe question of heating constitutes a major axis in these discussions between the MIN from Rungis and theOrly airport. The change to new, more environmentally friendly heating sources is more than an environmental issue, it is also an economic necessity. The two entities are looking at possible solutions, in particular those linked to geothermal energy, which make it possible to heat large areas without CO2 emissions.\n\n

Transport: Eco-mobility in the spotlight

\n\nAnother major challenge is that of transportation. With the considerable flow of people and goods passing through the airport and market every day, the opportunity to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is considerable. Eco-mobility is among the solutions explored. Efforts are being made in particular to promote the use of electric vehicles and reduce the use of vehicles running on fossil fuels.\n\n

A collective effort for the ecological transition

\n\nThe union of these two major regional economic players is only the reflection of a global awareness of the importance of ecological transition. It should be remembered that we all have a role to play in protecting our environment, whether in terms of consumption, mobility or the management of our waste. In this context, the commitment of the Rungis MIN and Orly airport is a strong signal to inspire and encourage other similar actions by companies in all sectors. \n\n
