I interview the farmer Jaume Torras (Sant Climent de Llobregat, 1974) one afternoon to talk about his company, Soulblim,, which is a spin-off of the stall his parents had at the Barceloneta market, where they sold vegetables. Everything started in 2007, when Jaume opened a website called L’Hortet del Baix to help his parents sell the vegetables they grew. For one hundred years in a row, someone from his family had always been at the Barceloneta market, but that year improvement works began, and his parents could not afford the cost, which was three hundred thousand euros. In 2004, they closed the stall. Jaume worked in software sales, he was a salesperson, and he helped his parents with L'Hortet del Baix. Nineteen years ago, the fact of selling vegetables through a website was exotic and strange, but it worked for him. He started getting visits from all over the country and the world. Later, something happened to him that helped him reach today, where he sells local, organic fruit and vegetables throughout the country. His fields, dedicated to organic farming, are in Sant Boi, Gavà, Viladecans, and Sant Climent de Llobregat.

Sergi stands atop a wooden tower from where he can see almost the entire Llobregat Delta. However, he never takes his eyes off the binoculars he wears around his neck, which he uses to inspect the area. He joined the Rural Agents less than three years ago, and one of his tasks is to monitor this area, declared a natural interest site near El Prat Airport.

Doctor in biology, Joan Pino, director of the Centre de Recerca Ecològica i Aplicacions Forestals (CREAF), explains that the expansion of El Prat airport above the protected natural area of La Ricarda, as envisaged in the draft project presented by Aena, would have significant negative impacts on the biodiversity of the Llobregat delta and the health of the residents of nearby towns. All this, in a climate emergency scenario.
