As world-renowned tourist destination, Paris is committed to sustainable development and is implementing a range of action plans to create a more environmentally responsible city such as The Paris Climate Action Plan. It aims to create a carbon-neutral city with 100% renewable energy, while the Biodiversity Action Plan focuses on increasing vegetation in public spaces and protecting flora and fauna. Energy, ecomobility, waste management, air quality and nature preservation are at the core of these action plans. 1,700 Parisian professionals signed the Hospitality Manifesto for a sustainable vision and engagement for all Parisian events, and Paris was rewarded as one of the top 20 sustainable destinations worldwide by the GDS index in 2024.
