The Reset Rebel meets Sandra Benbeniste from Ibiza Preservation

What was the effect of Lockdown on Ibiza? 

How much did the ecosystems of the island get to breathe a sigh of relief?

How were the farming industries affected? 

The fishermen? 

Is the Posedonia healthier now?  

Is that why there are no jelly fish this year?

Are the environmentalists jumping for joy the clubs are closed this summer? 

These are all questions that you may have been pondering since the “new normal” emerged on ibiza. 

We don’t have all the answers but we attempted to tackle the big issues on this episode of the Reset Rebel, as Jo Youle met up with Sandra Benbeniste from Ibiza Preservation. 

We were shocked and a bit sad to learn Ibiza is just 0.3% on target to reach the desired 70% renewable energy goal and this is down to a tax on the sun in Spain which meant people couldn’t install solar power sources and farming tools. 

In 2022 two solar parks are being created to help with this, but we are still a long way off and behind the rest of Europe.

We are also talking Electric cars in this episode and why the island has quite a few large snakes on the loose.
