Spain: Europe’s leader in wastewater recycling

Spain recycles 15 percent of its wastewater, compared to less than 1 percent in neighbouring France. The Murcia region is a pioneer, recycling 98 percent of its wastewater, mainly for agriculture. It’s a huge help during periods of drought. But while many people consider recycling wastewater the most sustainable way to manage the resource, some are worried about the effects on people’s health. FRANCE 24’s Maude Petit-Jové, Léa Le Denmat and Sarah Morris report from the Murcia region.
