1 - This pandemic forced the majority of us into living a situation none has ever experienced before, namely quarantine. What do you miss most  from the time before quarantine?

 

The dawns.

 

2 - First came the sanitary emergency and thereafter the economic one, are you more scared of catching the virus or of losing your job?

 

None of the two.

 

3 - How do you spend or have you spent your time during quarantine? If this extraordinary situation has brought you to make drastic choices in your life, can you tell us briefly?

 

I lived it healthier and more disciplined. I have changed my life rather than my lifestyle. My World.

 

4 - During the first days of quarantine around the end of February and the beginning of March, on the web appeared some articles by major news organizations about a very specific subject and with titles such as: “Coronavirus frightens, climate does not. How takes form the perception of risk.”

Have you ever thought about it? Have you ever considered that the experience of this pandemic could be taken as a lesson on climate change?

 

I have been thinking about it for all the first days of quarantine, to the point of forgetting to judge the others,  as to judge myself.

I do not think that the quarantine can fight climate change, but people could, if there will be changes it should come from the “world”, the same people, or/and from our way of preceiving the world.

 

5 - Pandemic has already brought severe changes in everyone's everyday life, and it will bring more and more. Did it unleash new doubts about your own future and/or the one of your family? Which ones?

 

I don't want to feel doubtful, to not feel fearful.

 

6 -The advanced capitalism in which we live made us believe that nothing could be stopped: the virus proved the contrary. Planet Earth basically had a month to breath free, all the activities or the majority of them had to cease: do you consider one or more of them, on balance, unnecessary? Which one of them would you like to see coming to a stop?

 

The transportation of goods and people on a long distance. We should think local.

 

7 - Some philosophers, sociologists, intellectuals hypothesize and/or hope that after this situation of quarantine and pandemic could happen a change in society, do you think it would be possible? (Explain us your answer)

 

Everything is possible.
