"If I were to draw a lesson from COP28, it would be this: the impossible can become possible. Aligning 193 countries around a common ambition, despite sometimes extremely divergent short-term interests and objectives, has become a reality with the agreement on fossil fuels on this Wednesday, December 13. The climate emergency is both an existential threat to our planet and our lives, but it's also a powerful lever for dialogue and compromise. At Saint-Gobain, a global leader in sustainable construction, we are proud to be a player in the fight against climate change." Emmanuel Normant, Vice-President for sustainable development at Saint-Gobain Group.

"Empowerment and trust generate positive and powerful implementation, with teams quickly rolling out a shared decision enriched by all.
