On Saturday, the French government issued a new decree allowing the reuse of wastewater. This decision was made within the framework of efforts to combat water shortages and to use it more effectively.
The new measure allows the use of reclaimed water for irrigating agricultural crops or in industry. It also requires companies to conduct thorough quality analyses of the water before its reuse.
The heightened decree is part of France's strategy to protect the environment and combat climate change. In a situation where drought is becoming increasingly widespread, the reuse of water becomes more significant, such an initiative has strategic importance.
"This is an important step towards more sustainable management of water resources," - emphasized the representative of the government.
