La révolution des bobos écolos | Flore CERCELLIER & Sébastien BIRON CERCELLIER | TEDxOrléans


[Music]

my name is flora and here is my husband

Sebastian hello to all

well did you understand the concept if we

are here today in front of you

to tell you about our life I tell you

reassure right away we will talk to you

a brief history of our life

our story but it starts well

because it’s a love story and

a multi-faceted encounter

already because Sebastian and I

met in ball club

faceted and then because this

meeting and brings us today to

to make our revolution so the

ecology revolution

so what is it about it is for

we to be aligned to go after

our convictions and to reconcile

worlds that one would rather tend to

general way in society

still today to oppose ecology

and classy joy and family work and

professional projects

pants and boots and boots but

it is possible it is possible the proof

flora and I live and work

together it is possible also the offers

create a firm of conviction and

now it’s time for management

and sustainable development we are

from scratch a capital sense with

ideas and especially their desire for good

to grow with our customers

especially thanks to their trust

we settled down we did two

wonderful children abel people it’s

especially me that they did really

but I still contributed a little

I hope I never know then eh ben

we got married January 14th it’s good

it’s not common and we decided a

given time to settle down and have

a duplex just next to paris

meriaux of the cache not if you imagine

with three fields three terraces

crossing a red stop the Eiffel Tower

in one corner the bearded nail in the other

the rooftop pool the summer we had

makes a small vegetable garden some trees

fruit trees cherry trees pear trees

kiwi we did not have a car

by choice of course our bike

power anyway had the

amenities shops on foot

necessarily had good wages is

could put every month money

aside, our parents were happy

I would say even reassured our friends come

often you surprise me there are some in the

room is often and I think that

somewhere and envy we were at

top

we were at the top for society but

we were not aligned

and one day I look Sebastian I him

said Sebastian we break I’m

remember he answers me ok we break the

model but because what does not say the

sedan age is that our employees

time was overloaded, which had to

high wages to repay loans

invest to tax

ie to spend to do more

of savings minery if children

had watched the nurseries pay

in a race forward always more

frantic I’ll tell you that a

moment I had a feeling maybe

some enter or otherwise have it

felt also is to lose my life to

to seek to win

and then with our rooftop our kitchen garden

on the roof at the bulk of the harvest

we had what to hang far 4 carrots

beautiful tomatoes with beautiful red berries

of apples

in short, I still had the

feeling when it was ridiculous to

but be careful our fruits and vegetables

it’s super good to rave about

explain nature’s life to our

children but it was more possible me

I could not continue like that anymore

We absolutely had to go after

of our convictions

it was imperative that we increase

carrot yield then obliged a

little more seriously the

climate change you know it all

it’s a reality I can not do

as if it did not exist I can not

act like it’s not so bad at

background and that we might be able to find

solutions tomorrow it’s not possible

I can not live like that

last month I do not know if you have

heard this on the bbc a famous

physicist researcher you know

certainly what is called stephen

hawking he urged us and we

given in life expectancy to us

humanity I believe this theme of this

afternoon

100 in time it’s just flipper

still a little bit

dramatic

the guy is not a frenzied fremm 100

years and numbers like that you in

find everywhere studies of this kind

they are plethora it concerns the

health it’s about food

international migration

it’s about the economy

it concerns the same biodiversity

pot of cream he is concerned but this

kind of talk and we see

now for a good decade

would say it’s not a fan at all and it’s

completely demobilizer say we

it’s all going for it does not work it’s true

because we have this

ecological consciousness that’s for sure and in

more of that maybe some of them

you also have it we have a form of

flame like I have no energy a

inner strength a kiki germs in us

and that they want to do so if

like a music that we could

hear every day May 10

already listen to what you feel

ok i’m listening what ok ok now

you ‘ll say what you think is our

job told us what we think but

but mostly do what you say but

does we miss a trigger a

element that was going to make the whole

difference

it’s like a plant whose

roots of gets in the ground carp

the ground until an element a

event as a drop comes

pierce the earth’s crust and

allow the plant to flourish

we were missing his this element there

then one day in the street we had this

trigger event but no

only we lived but you too

you have experienced it since it is a

dramatic event and every time

that it makes me do it we repeated

yet I find it is about

paris attacks

and this is one of the few virtues of

these unfortunate events there are some

well one

is that they made us anyway

for us even more focus on

the essential and the essential for us

it’s our family

take care of nature take care

of others and that’s making sense of

our life then so let’s go from

our decision it is taken on sell

the part we sort out we sell the superfluous and

We are leaving

but reactions are welcome but

why are you doing this but why

you were so good yeah there our

relatives

yeah especially to you besides but

flirte loves to go out in the exhibitions

were at the party

you did not hurt me as the same hand our

friends but there was the apartment

for three years you are already selling

it’s too good

you go danger a hole there our nos

customers too

oh yes our customers who told us but

wait until you leave if you

go we will forget you they forget

it is the certain death of your

business

there’s nothing there you have nothing no it’s

no but it’s true but somewhere he

was right then they were right

because we took risks from

measured risks in particular

financially because we put in

Savings

so it’s still more comfortable

for us but we took the risk of

get out of our comfort zone we have

took the risk of saying goodbye to our

friends it’s not nothing we took the risk

to lose customers and / our

standard of living not easy

we took the risk of putting on boots

we took the risk of

utopias that paris has taken the risk of

to pass for Parisians in evidence

but mostly we took a very big

risk

really we took the risk of getting

plant

that I can tell you it’s not

easy especially with my education and

my perfectionist side not always

an advantage

here I place them but when I

start something good enough

then because when I start something

thing I want it to be well done and

I’m just starting it

people are already considering mistakes

not only errors but

failures it’s not obvious and for

grow up you have to plant hold this

time you then our decision is made

south west direction for

get closer to the family where

many do not see anything at

otherwise we saw a return to

nature a bond with the land singing

birds the matap of that the sound of

Parisian periphery

we had sweet scent of grass

freshly cut

see some flowering undergrowth rather than

the periphery in paris the land yes and we

had also its hills I have not so

you can imagine this horizon or in

do you can breathe

can you plan to contemplate could

dream while before we did

dream with 1.7 square meters with a view

on the roofs of paris

In short we found our place

our place to create our oasis a

place centered on nature with in its

heart

a permaculture garden is a place that

wants to be autonomous the most autonomous

possible

open to the world but also open to

world with his little house and his

petanque

because bobo one day bobo ride and then in

bobos there you hear but there are two

times good eh well it’s okay because

I want two of the group

I want bo I want chic

I want comfort that said that

ecology it was a return in

back or that it was ugly people

and that’s fine but we want

simple too is that all that’s

not antinomic

and then the beautiful is really good

we feel good the beautiful that we

inspires its our resources and then no

only that inspires us and

especially it inspires others it gives

again again you’re right there

try to catch up with my name a little

but the reason because when we know

that these are the stories and the

emotions not only that shape

our own imagination but especially

our everyday life we need

new stories of beautiful

stories of change stories

stories of life stories in

life with the good in the heart of the story

as a form of catalyst as a

motor to our desires and the beautiful the beautiful

finally I would say nature when we

look at nature

it’s a great source

inspiration

look at my wife her name is flora

that’s it but I think we’re ready yes

I think we are ready to make

errors

after that is not it

perfect ready to put the boots

after having dirty hands one is

also ready to work outside one is

ready to sow

we are ready to take root also the

price offered our bread we are ready to

do our part as small as she is

but we are ready to do this part

we are ready to make our revolution

so maybe you here or

elsewhere you hesitate to ask yourself

questions you hesitate to cross the

rubicon the stage the role the rhin I

pass the neighbor’s field but look

we’re ok we’re a little silly and we

is good but good in our boots and

it’s priceless

by the way you know what it’s like

revolution the revolution it’s before

to do a complete tour of yourself

so flowers and I just wanted

to wish you all

a good revolution

thanks thanks

[Applause]
