WHY SUPPORT THE FRENCH NEW BILL AGAINST FOOD WASTE?

Abstract

The objective of this analysis is to highlight the urgency of quickly obtaining a new effective law against food waste.

Indeed, the alarming situation with regard to the social and environmental emergency requires a change in the law.

Indeed, with on the one hand an increase in impoverishment in our country and increasingly long queues at the « soup kitchen » and on the other hand the emergence of worrying global warming, citizens expect effective, innovative and adapted legal tools.

Let us recall that the French law of 3^rd February 2016 had positive consequences that we will study.

However, we must go further with a new bill against food waste in order to adapt the legal framework to the current situation.

This is the objective of this legal analysis.
