Repositioning water as a central element of our lives
Entrepreneur, a pioneer in 2005 in the valorization of rainwater, I continue to innovate daily to remain among the forerunners in water management, taking into account, for example, the management of water at the plot level since 2016 and the recycling of gray water since 2020. Whether in my work as a study office or as a speaker, my niche is to popularize these themes to engage all stakeholders behind me. No complex speeches that dazzle or ultra-technological solutions reserved for an elite. On the contrary, an impactful, unifying, rational discourse in which everyone will appropriate the issues and realize that they can act. To act, simple, effective solutions adapted to our environment and our daily lives. As vice-president of the rainwater commission within ATEP (Actors of Water Treatment at the Plot), I am fortunate to share these values with my colleagues and relay them so that water is finally recognized as a resource and not as waste. I believe you now understand better why my slogan is "Making you happy when it rains"

Understanding Rainwater - Simply!
One evening, during a casual gathering, I met someone who said to me: "You are a rainwater specialist, that's great, I don't understand anything about it and I'm lost as soon as it's mentioned. I hear everything and its opposite, and every discourse seems relevant to me. - On Monday I hear that it doesn't rain enough, that we are in a drought, and on Tuesday I hear that we are at risk of flooding - One day I'm advised to collect rainwater and the next day I'm told that valuing rainwater disrupts the natural water cycle." The theme and approach of my conference were born. ☛ The theme: knowing everything & understanding everything about rainwater ☛ The approach: a simplification of the water cycle and its evolution due to climate change, with a focus on concrete solutions to be implemented. So yes, we are going to break some preconceived ideas and question some paradoxes: ☛ What if Brittany was not a land of rain? ☛ What if we could be at the same time at risk of flooding and under a drought order? ☛ What if collecting rainwater to water your garden was not a good idea? The plus: a conference on rainwater led by a somewhat chauvinistic Breton, a rainwater specialist named Fontaine, can only be a moment of lively exchanges!
