This case describes a series of strategic decisions facing Jean-Michel Gires, Total E & P France (TEPF) VP Sustainable Development, in developing and implementing a strategy involving the community. The case begins with the capture and storage of carbon pilot (CCS) system at the facility Lacq TEPF in France, and defines the strategic context for the process of community interaction.
