The two aliens were contacted by their supervisor, and supported their arguments with interviews with the “Fantastic Four” of Plastics:

   * Olfa Chebaane,  Project Manager at the Heinrich Böll Foundation,

   * Nidhal Attia, Program Coordinator of Sustainable Development and Environmental Policies at the Heinrich Böll Foundation,

   * Wassim Chaabane, Expert in waste management and circular economy;

   * Myriam Khalfallah, Postdoctoral researcher at the University of British Columbia in natural resource management and environmental studies.

We learn about the current situation of the measures taken against plastic producers (whether applied or not), at a local, national and international level, as well as the interviewees' positions and suggestions on the alternatives to plastic. They also discuss "who is responsible the abundance of plastic in our lives", considering consumers, industrialists, the Tunisian State, and the world in general.

Based on these contributions, the two aliens decided to take two different paths in their respective strategies to fight the issue of plastic on their planet [(-CH2-)n].

ABOUT

Inkyfada Podcast is the first platform entirely dedicated to original Tunisian podcasts, and was conceived by Inkyfada media in collaboration with the in-house research and development laboratory, InkyLab.
Inkyfada joined the global podcast boom in 2017, when the team produced the first Tunisian audio documentary, diving deep into the belly of the El Kamour struggle taking place in the desert.
Since then, Inkyfada Podcast has produced a wide variety of documentaries, investigations, and podcast series, as well as articles accompanied by music; covering a multitude of contemporary issues in order to offer an immersive and alternative podcast experience.
Whilst exclusively offering audio content, the Inkyfada Podcast team upholds the same core values and principles of inkyfada.com, and is committed to producing high quality content though a dynamic and meticulous production process.
In addition to the permanent team, Inkyfada podcast works closely with various journalists, artists, illustrators, musicians and other content creators in order to diversify the platform and support artistic creativity.
These podcasts differ from traditional radiophonic content in that the applied production and editing process is more akin to cinematographic techniques, in addition to being web-based, downloadable and accessible on demand.
Additionally, Inkyfada Podcast uniquely offers subtitles in French, Arabic and English for all audio content, the majority of which is recorded in Tunisian or in the preferred language of the speaker in question.
