Questioned at the Universités d’Eté de l’Economie de Demain which took place at Cité internationale universitaire of Paris, Jean Moreau came back on what really mean sobriety, the theme of the 4th edition of this event for committed economy. The co-chairman of Mouvement Impact France analyzes change already occurring and the rest of the path to a new and more sustainable production and consumption approach.
In a column published in La Tribune, the Mouvement Impact France, health professionnals and a dozen of company leaders stress on the need to use sobriety to improve health services. By integrating in their way of life new ways to move, to feed, to work and then to consume our well-being can be improved. For that, we cannot rethink our collective habits by individual actions. Public power, associations and mutualists must collectively propose a new model, aligned with social, health and environmental issues we are facing.
To take part in the fight against climate change, Auriane Lefebvre and Manon Baste are joining forces to create Houbly in 2020! It is a company that recycles biowaste and plant waste to make sustainable, recyclable and compostable agromaterials.
Auriane and Manon have identified two plant waste sources that are not yet recovered in Île-de-France: spent grains from breweries, waste from beer production and cocoa pods from beans roasting. They then use this waste as a raw material to manufacture new materials which, at the end of their life, can be returned to the earth in the form of compost contributing to soil regeneration.
This also promotes less polluted air in our homes. A great project that Les Grandes Idées salutes!
