The Biodiversity Plan aims to strengthen France’s efforts to preserve biodiversity. It seeks to mobilize levers for its restoration and limit its degradation. As of July 4, 2018, its objective is to improve the daily lives of French citizens and their future.
The plan is structured around six strategic priorities, 24 objectives, and 90 actions. It addresses the fight to preserve and restore biodiversity in its entirety :
- Restoring biodiversity in local areas : curbing the artificialization of natural and agricultural spaces and restoring biodiversity areas.
- Building an economy with zero pollution and low impact on biodiversity : reconciling economic development and biodiversity conservation
- Developing an ambitious European and international roadmap for biodiversity.
- Knowledge, education, and training : mobilizing all stakeholders and citizens around these issues.
- Improving the effectiveness of biodiversity policies: towards more efficient implementation

ECT’s expertise is fully in line with this approach.
Thanks to the circular economy of excavated soil, ECT contributes to :
- Limit artificialization by redeveloping brownfield sites, quarries, or abandoned land instead of opening up new spaces.
- Restoring living soils to recreate green corridors and promote biodiversity..
- Rehabilitate land for agricultural or natural use, restoring ecological and economic value to the territories..
Each project, designed in collaboration with local authorities and stakeholders, embodies the ambitions of the Biodiversity Plan : useful, sustainable developments that are integrated with the needs of the regions.
