Question 3013 — sustainable development

Summary

Ms. Aude Luquet questions the Minister of State, Minister of Ecological and Inclusive Transition, on the initiatives taken by France within the framework of Sustainable Development Goal 12. Faced with environmental issues, the transition from a linear economy to a circular economy is a challenge for the country. With this in mind, a “circular economy” public consultation platform was launched on Monday October 30, 2017 by the Ministry of Ecological and Inclusive Transition and should make it possible to establish a roadmap published in March 2018. The development of the circular economy fully contributes to the implementation of Sustainable Development Objective 12 “establishing sustainable consumption and production patterns”, this does not cover all of the targets of this objective. The fight against food waste is, for example, a target with the objective of halving the volume of food waste per capita globally by 2030. Moreover, France is not exemplary in this area with food waste estimated at between 12 to 20 billion euros per year. Likewise, the promotion of sustainable practices in the context of public procurement, sustainable tourism or the rationalization of fossil fuel subsidies are among the targets of SDG 12. So, she asks him where France is in achieving each target of Sustainable Development Goal 12.
