France advances the fight against plastic pollution
An anti-waste law promoting circular economy has been adopted earlier this year by the French National Assembly. Its target is to reinforce producers' responsabilities, accuracy of information to consumers, simplification of waste sorting and waste reduction by optimizing recycling. Surfrider Europe highlights the main points of the 2020 legislation and explains how it will reduce plastic pollution of our ocean.

This week we challenged our community to share our favorite ocean-friendly DIYs we all created during confinement!
