Past The Limit
An environmental group based in France called Robin Hood announced some distressing news in 2019. They shared that residents of an apartment just one mile from the cathedral requested that lead tests be administered on their property. The results showed that the apartment’s balcony returned levels nearly 20 times the recommended limit.

A Parisian police station later reported that it found lead levels eight times the legal limit. Union representative Frédéric Guillo shared his mounting concerns: “It proves once again that the lead contamination caused by Notre-Dame fire is a serious, long-term problem that authorities need to protect their citizens from.”
