PARIS: Urbanites seeking peace and quiet in the bucolic French countryside will have more difficulty in taking farmers to court over crowing roosters, mooing cows and stinking pigs in the future after parliament passed a new law, reported German news agency (dpa).
@Semi-Hemi-Demigod @DerpyPoint is that a new thing specific to post-covid city-accustomed people trying to emigrate to the countryside, being bothered by countrylife and trying to eliminate it?
It’s something that was happening at least 20 years ago as well. Though specifically for pig farms’ smell: regulations of how to deal with the smell has long existed and quite often if there’s complaints they’re not using the filtration system because it’s expensive to maintain.
I live within 200m of a pig farm and I’ve never smelled it itself.
No, it existed long before covid. There is towns which made a contract for people moving there, which deny them the right to file against the church’s bells noises or cow’s moo by example.
In the article, which was a daunting 200 words, it talks about cases from 2016 and 2019.
Its been happening for a very long time. Usually its farms, but it applies to anything loud and/or smelly. Racetracks and gun ranges are good examples.
