Informations reçues concernant les projets de stockage d’eau qui se développent en France depuis les années 90 (« méga-bassines »), l’usage excessif de la force à l’encontre de leurs opposants lors de manifestations, ainsi que la criminalisation des organisations de défense des droits humains et de l’environnement. Les méga-bassines font l’objet de contestations en raison de leur potentiel impact environnemental et social, ainsi que du point de vue du respect des droits à l’alimentation, à l’eau, à un environnement propre et sain, à la liberté de réunion pacifique et d’association.
