Xavier Yvon: I know what you think. You say to yourself that to start this episode, I’m going to rebroadcast an extract from the campaign spot of René Dumont, green candidate for the presidency of the Republic in the 1970s. Well no, I’m not that predictable. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, it’s best to listen yesterday’s episode of La Loupe to kill two birds with one stone. You will hear the prophecy of this colorful politician, but also and above all the explanations of our journalists Alexandra Saviana and Valentin Ehkirch on the water.

If you visited an area where drinking water was restricted last summer, this is just the beginning. Despite apparently sufficient resources, France is now exposed to the risk of a shortage and must adapt urgently. Listen to what Alexandra Saviana told us at the end of yesterday’s episode:

Alexandra Saviana : “More than a miracle solution, the actors of the water cycle are betting on a multitude of natural, technological and political opportunities.”

Xavier Yvon : So we stopped there. And today, I am offering you a small inventory of leads to try to prevent our taps from turning into a vacuum soon.
