Rename Every Street in Rennes to Honor Alan Turing's Contributions

Le problème

I have always been an ardent admirer of Alan Turing, a man whose work has significantly shaped the world we live in today. Yet, it seems that his contributions are not adequately recognized in our daily lives. This petition seeks to rectify this oversight by renaming every street in Rennes, France after him.

Alan Turing was a pioneering British mathematician and computer scientist who played a crucial role during World War II. His work on breaking the Enigma code saved countless lives and shortened the war by more than two years according to historians (source: Bletchley Park Trust). Post-war, he laid down the foundations for modern computing which has revolutionized every aspect of our life from communication to healthcare.

Yet despite these monumental contributions, Turing's name is not as widely recognized as it should be. By renaming streets after him, we can ensure that his legacy is remembered and celebrated every day.

This initiative will also serve as an educational tool for future generations about the importance of science and technology in shaping society. It will inspire them to learn more about figures like Turing who have made significant contributions but are often overlooked.

Let us honor Alan Turing's memory by making his name a part of our everyday life in Rennes. Sign this petition if you believe that his work deserves greater recognition.
