French state ‘at fault’ over pollution
The state has been found “at fault” for failing to take sufficient measures to reduce air pollution in two separate cases.
A mother and daughter living near the Paris Périphérique and suffering breathing problems brought the first case, the first of its kind in France. A case of three Parisian women followed.
