11:00 - 12:30 Round Table - Amphi MB3 - Education and political commitment in a time of climate emergency and rising fascism (in both FRENCH and ENGLISH) - With Romain Boucher (collectif Vous n’êtes pas seul), Alix Cheney (Sciences Po Toulouse et Univ. Toulouse Jean Jaurès), Hao Tam Ho (Atécopol) Jean-Michel Hupé (FRAMESPA, CNRS, Univ. Toulouse Jean Jaurès), Elena Kerjean et Juliane Mailly (CRCA, CNRS, Univ. de Toulouse), Margot Reyes (InterMed, Univ. de Perpignan), and a guest. Like many researcher-activists, we are deeply concerned about three current political trends: 1) the widely observed disaffection of young people with politics; 2) the escalation of anti-protest laws; and 3) the continuing rise of fascism around the world. HTH and JMH shared their reflections with six young speakers and urge educators to listen to them - to their struggles, hopes, disappointments, fears and dreams - so to reflect on what we, as educators, must do to ensure that their and future generations are able and willing to continue to engage politically, to defend and strive for a stronger, better and true democracy. As some of the speakers will respond directly to HTH and JMH’s reflections, we kindly ask the audience to download and read the document below before the session.

Aix Marseille), Maxime Precheur (Univ. Strasbourg), Marthe Wens (Free Univ. Amsterdam), Lucas Gierczak (Acadamia) and Chiara Pignatelli (EIES project) - The discussion will focus on the fossil fuel industry's links of influence in Higher Education and Research (industrial chairs, co-sponsored projects, co-funded theses, presence on the Board of Directors, etc.). The aim will be to discuss actions to reveal and map these influences, with several initiatives underway, but above all to raise the question of the strategy to put a stop to them. How do we go about it, and where do we start, to influence the choices made by universities and laboratories, in a context of budgetary crisis and incentives to turn to private funding? How can we bring together and/or reinforce existing initiatives in the associative and academic worlds, and encourage the emergence of new ones? Finally, we could extend the question to other types of enterprise (military, far-right, etc.).

11:00 - 12:30 Workshop - MB404 - What interesting research can be done with a tonne of carbon? (in BOTH ENGLISH /FRENCH) - Moderated by Pierre-Luc Bardet (biology, IBPS, Sorbonne Univ.), Pablo Jensen (physics, CNRS, ENS Lyon), Vincent Gerbaud and Camille Gaume (chemical engineering, LGC, INP Toulouse) - The CNRS's recent carbon footprint shows a 3% increase in greenhouse gas emissions in four years, to over 14 tonnes eqCO2 per employee. Thinking in terms of low-carbon research requires us to give up a good part of our activities. The challenge of this workshop, based on examples from physicists, biologists and chemists - the disciplines that emit the most greenhouse gases - will be to develop “interesting” scientific questions, relating to fundamental issues, that could be explored by emitting no more than 1tCO2e/year. First, we'll take a concrete look at the inadequacy of conventional measurements, using the example of the Laboratoire de Génie Chimique (Toulouse). Then we'll start to think, collectively, about a research policy compatible with planetary limits and to define together questions of interest to the scientific communities concerned and which it seems possible to tackle with methods emitting very little greenhouse gas.

Panel : Nicolas Berger (Université de Bordeaux), Fabienne Martin (CNRS), Francesca Schonsberg (LPENS, Paris), Dante Gerini (Université Aix-Marseille), Sydney Thomas (INP, Toulouse), Bruno Autivy (Université de Nantes), Odin Marc (GET, Toulouse). In the face of ecological upheaval and energy issues, the promises of techno-science are regularly put forward. Of course, technology and engineering have a role to play in the path of our societies towards sustainability. However, these technical promises, which are often techno-solutionists, are also highly open to criticism because they obscure other proposals (more frugal, low-tech, social, political) or even fuel a rush towards further ecological damage. In this workshop, we propose to take a closer look at the foundations and content of several promises (hydrogen, AI, quantum computing, smart cities, industrial efficiency) and to think about how to counter them, go beyond them or develop alternatives (such as low-tech or frugal architecture). The workshop will include theoretical and historical presentations on the critics of technology and on low-tech, a discussion phase with the speakers around posters or stands, and a collective thinking phase on interdisciplinary research and approaches to criticise and go beyond technosolutionist promises.
