Jean-Yves ROUX, French consul general in Wuhan, and Guo Rui, secretary of the CPC Leadership Group and vice chairwoman of the Changsha Association for Science and Technology, jointly unveiled the exhibition. Maxime FERAILLE, science and technology attaché of Consulate General of France in Wuhan, introduced and led the exhibition tour.

Adapted from the comic book of the same name by the Institut Français, the exhibition delves into the two main topics addressed in the comic book: energy and climate, in a humorous way. The event aims to promote the public's understanding of the current ecological crisis, raise their awareness of the challenges of ecological transition, and call for energy saving, emission reduction, and green and low-carbon actions.

The Consulate General of France in Wuhan has developed close interactions with Changsha since its establishment. "We hope this event will raise public awareness of environmental protection and build a shared future for all life on Earth," said Wang Ziyang, executive deputy director of the Changsha Library. The Changsha Library and the Consulate General of France in Wuhan have established a friendly partnership, collaboratively organizing such activities as "Croisements Festival", "French Time in Changsha", and "Franco-Chinese Month of the Environment". This helped advance diversified cultural exchanges, enhancing the mutual understanding between Chinese and French people.
