We all know that we must act for the environment!
But do we really do it?
“Mehhh…”
“That doesn’t really tempt me…”
“I have other things to do…”
“Yes yes, a little. »
2023 is coming and… how can I put it to you… it’s becoming a little more urgent to “do things”!
So for 2023, Bateau Bateau is making the big resolution to kick our collective ass to “do things”.
Rest assured, these are very nice actions, and the kick is nice and full of benevolence!

A PROJECT TO CONNECT WITH YOU
What's fun about this project is that we're not just going to tell you "Hey, you should do that, it's much better for the planet". Nenon, we will live them and do them WITH you.
We're going to give you ideas, we're going to propose solutions, we're going to test things TOGETHER, and we're going to complain if we need to complain. Don't whine like children like: "I don't like it, burk" when you haven't even tasted it! Nenon. We make the effort, and afterwards, we can complain to express our dismay, a blatant lack of solutions. And we don't know, maybe through strength in numbers and through discussions, we will be able to find someone who knows someone who has a cousin who has the solution!
And it will happen on all our social networks - in their own style - to be able to connect with everyone. So you will be able to see the challenge of the week on our Facebook page , see Reels on Instagram and TikTok videos regarding the challenges we offer. You will sometimes be able to follow our reflections “LIVE” in Insta story or read on certain topics in catch-up on our blog .
The goal in all this is of course to mobilize! But why?
I would tend to answer simply: for the best.
For our future all, but for our present too.
First of all, I don't know about you, but generally, we are filled with pride when we accomplish things! Then, taking actions that have a positive impact calms our eco-anxiety in the medium term because we really feel like we are moving in the right direction. I also think that following a wave of mobilization makes us feel good, because we can feel the greatness and the strength of “we”.
Then, there are plenty of solutions that exist that we don't necessarily know about to limit our efforts. In the end, we get more immediate comfort, we improve our quality of life now and sometimes, making a very small change can even make our lives easier in the long term.
In short, well-being can be felt in our daily lives now, in addition to generating hope for a better future for generations to come.
