On Monday, 9 December 2013, the ATMO France Federation in partnership with ASPA – ATMO-Alsace organizes the closing conference of the European Year of Air in the presence of Janez Potočnik, European Commissioner for the Environment.

It will be the opportunity to take stock on the European Year of Air launched on January 8 in Brussels and continued with consultation of the parties involved, reflections on new Air Directives, Green Week 2013 devoted to air, etc. And it takes place more generally in a context of technical, financial and social difficulties to meet European air quality challenges.

ATMO France represents the 27 regional organisations of air quality assessment accredited by the French Ministry of Sustainable Development. They play a central role for the construction of local shared diagnosis and concerted mitigation action programs with an approach air-climate-energy as it is promoted by the European Union.
