what choices in Nonville? in Paris

By authorizing two new oil drilling sites and the extension of the Bridge Energies concession in Nonville (Seine-et-Marne), the government is sending a very negative signal for the environment. The Nonville drilling project, in addition to its contribution to France's greenhouse gas emissions, poses a serious threat to the water supply of Paris and municipalities in Seine-et-Marne. It threatens the drinking water catchments of Villeron and Villemer, which supply 180,000 Parisians and Seine-et-Marnais. Several accidents in the past have already occurred on the Nonville site, leading to fears for the worst. Pollution of the Lunain, a river classified Natura 2000 located near future drilling, would be dramatic for biodiversity and water quality, the latter already threatened by global warming.

Described as “ potential ecological disaster » by the President of Eau de Paris Dan Lert, the extension of Nonville oil drilling embodies in the 77 a dangerous and aberrant policy prioritizing private interests in defiance of:

– water quality

– the will and health of local residents

– biodiversity

– respect for the Paris Agreements
