Renaud Muselier, Renaissance president of the South region, is the guest of Sonia Mabrouk this Tuesday. At the microphone of Europe 1, he returned to the policies of anticipation of drought in his region and challenged the environmental critics on the water reservoirs.
Faced with Sonia Mabrouk, Renaud Muselier, Renaissance president of the southern region, opposed the environmental arguments concerning the water reservoirs in order to cope with the drought. In its region, two artificial lakes, the lake of Serre-Ponçon and that of Sainte-Croix in the Verdon, are used to retain water. On the ecological side, water reservoirs are ecological nonsense because they would be harmful to all natural ecosystems.
For Renaud Muselier, “ecologists are not entirely reasonable”. “The history of the world shows that this is not true. It takes reservoirs to get to drink. They have a version of things that is not mine,” he explains.
Show sobriety
“We are working with the University of Aix-Marseille and we are going to launch the blue gold plan to avoid the water war in the context of wastewater which is treated and reprocessed to reinject it into the circuit to wash our streets or our cars”, detailed the president of the South Region.
Renaud Muselier also calls for sobriety in the way he uses water and also recalls the region’s commitments: “we have built dams, aqueducts and we are investing 50 million to ensure that the region does not lack ‘water”.
