"I will not rest"

Nora Devenish

The journalist visited environmentalist Franz Weber at his home on Lake Geneva. In the interview, the 87-year-old reflects on his past as a journalist and activist, and as the savior of the Grand Hotel Giessbach on Lake Brienz, owned by the Franz Weber Foundation. This is likely the last interview with Switzerland's most renowned environmentalist before he handed over the reins of his foundation to his daughter Vera in September 2014. The interview was published as part of the series "Influential Business Figures from the Microcosm" in the Jungfrau Zeitung. It profiled personalities who have shaped the eastern Bernese Oberland through their economic commitment.
