The “2040, j’y vais” podcast is proposed by Chantal Peyer. It’s a place to listen to the sound of the forest growing, rather than the well-documented sound of the tree falling. Chantal Peyer takes the microphone to inspiring people who, through their stance, their vision and their commitment, are helping to build the Suisse Romande of tomorrow. She gives voice to the analyses, projects and ideas that serve this new paradigm of finite growth in a finite world, and that speak of the interdependence of human beings with the rest of the living world.
In this episode of the podcast “2040 j’y vais!”, Chantal Peyer explores the role we give young people in politics. How can they get involved? Are we letting them take their rightful place?
To discuss this, she meets with Stéphane Garcia, executive director of the “La Place” project, and Laura Bullon-Cassis, a researcher at the Albert Hirschman Center for Democracy.
20 metric tons of plastic waste are dumped into the oceans every minute. There is waste visible to the naked eye, but also invisible microplastics. In this episode of the podcast “2040 j’y vais!,” Chantal Peyer explores how we can collectively find solutions to this problem alongside Pascal Hagmann (founder of OceanEye) and David Azoulay (director of CIEL’s health program).
Today, our way of life depends on oil: from sunscreen to textiles to airplanes, industries use oil to manufacture the products we use.

Local electrical communities (LECs) enable residents to produce, share and consume electricity locally, on a neighborhood scale. Citizen energy as one of the solutions for the energy transition?

How do you find the courage to act in this world in crisis? How do you stay true to your ideals, when the winds are against you? In this special Podcast, “2040 j’y vais”, we discuss these questions with entrepreneur, writer and film-maker Flore Vasseur.
The energy transition, everyone’s talking about it…. We’re talking about solar panels in the Alps and reviving nuclear power plants. But what about already-built surfaces on which to install solar panels?
In this podcast, we discuss this forward-looking solution with Chloé Gasiglia from Insolight and Stéphane Genoud from HES-SO Valais.
