The document outlines Angers Loire Metropole's plan to create a climate action plan. It discusses measuring the area's carbon footprint, results which show residential and transportation sectors account for most emissions, and already implemented actions. A participatory process is proposed involving inhabitants, professionals, and councils to define new actions and monitor progress. Participation from local communities is seen as key to ensuring the climate plan's success.

our carbon footprint ?
>> Greenhouse gas emissions on our plates!
- 1 l tap water. - 1l mineral water
- 1 chicken leg. - 150 g beef.
- 200 g fresh green - 200g frozen green
beans. beans.
- ¼ ship imported - ¼ pineapple
