France: 51 industrial sites commit to reducing their water consumption. Around fifty factories in France have committed to reduce their consumption by 10% before 2030.

The debate is not legally binding, but opponents intend to make themselves heard, but the result of the debate is the same: the French state wants to increase water use by industry.
