Participants expressed a sense of urgency regarding the fight against climate change. Political institutions and personalities, at all levels of governance, must take up the issue and do more to reduce the carbon footprint of our societies. Instead of making ordinary citizens feel guilty for low-impact actions, politicians should tax the real pollution-producing structures, such as companies that continue to launch new fossil fuel extraction projects. 

At the institutional level, respecting the Paris agreements and considering giving a legal personality to nature are ways of progressing, as well as favoring rail transport over air transport, reducing the cost of electric or hybrid vehicles, or introducing a penalty on the resale of a house if it does not meet environmental requirements. 

The citizens generally expressed themselves against the artificialization of land and urbanization, and in favor of cities and agricultural spaces with vegetation. The issue of public transport, especially in Marseille, came up several times. The people of Marseille clearly want a more efficient transport system and a better consideration of bicycles in the city, with the construction of bicycle paths. Concerning the food of the citizens, they plebiscite an organic and local food, and at the same time more means to limit the food waste. They expressed the urgent need for a better waste sorting system, and even the introduction of a deposit for containers. 

Communication and education seem to be essential components in changing attitudes. Many participants supported additional classes and workshops in schools to raise awareness about nature conservation and forest fires.
