What you need to know is that the word glacier only appears once in the French regulations and the action that the. we are going to propose to all the people who will participate, it is to sign an appeal to increase these regulations, in particular through the participation of scientists, and which we will then take to the European deputies so that the preservation of the glaciers and everything what results from this can become an integral part of European law and then of French law. And that it is not simply a citizen desire, but a principle that we give ourselves as a nation, to preserve our glaciers in the mountains.” Antoine Pin, Director of POW Protect Our Winters in
