Hypertourismos ep5 : Who even cares ?
•
In this episode, we talk about responsibility. Who should act to save Santorini? What are politicians doing? Who even cares?
When activists are doing most of the work voluntarily and without much resources, when municipalities are blocked by national governments, when investors are still building hotels in protected areas and individuals think saving Santorini is a lost battle, the island is certainly in need of a strong and collective movement to guarantee its sustainability.
A podcast by Maëlle Julou for Sphera, available on the European podcast platform EuroPod and all listening platforms.
Production: By Europod, in co-production with the Sphera network.
