To help you get to grips with the last few weeks, marked by a series of setbacks on the ecological front, Chantal Peyer has put together a special edition of the podcast “2040 j’y vais!”, featuring Jean-Pierre Goux.

Jean Pierre Goux is poetry combined with a scientific mind. He is a mathematician, engineer, entrepreneur, writer, lecturer and committed player in the ecological transition. He was Managing Director of the Bourse de l’Energie for 10 years and President of the Institut des futurs souhaitables before deciding to devote most of his time to writing novels.

His novels and lectures are invitations to bring together wonder and rigor, love and commitment, respect for the living and innovation. Rather than digging deeper into duality, he invites us to go beyond it to create a planetary movement to reinvent our societies, within planetary limits.

Interview: Chantal Peyer
Production: Sébastien Sommer
