Un jour noir pour l'Europe, nos #enfants et la #biodiversité.
Le Parlement européen a rejeté le projet de réduction des #pesticides de 50%.
Ce vote faite suite à un intense lobbying documenté ici : corporateeurope.org/en/2023/11/s...
Vos enfants vous accuseront.

🤜🤛 Big Polluters need to be kept out of the political arenas where crucial decisions for our future are being taken! We need a #PesticideFreeEU !
Can you help us share our report?
👉 Read and share it: corporateeurope.org/en/2023/10/s...
Image of Bayer, BASF, Syngenta, Corteva and Crop Life Europe and a tractor spreading pesticides and the words: EU Pesticide Reduction Law
⚠️ Our new report shows that the pesticide industry lobby has been sabotaging #SUR via four main strategies:
❎ 1. Pushing for the pesticide reduction targets to be lowered or made just aspirational
❎ 2. Downplaying the potential of biocontrol solutions
#PesticideFreeEU
Am 24. Oktober werden wichtige Entscheidungen über die dringend benötigte EU-Pestizidreduktionsverordnung getroffen #SUR. Wir forden die Abgeordneten im ENVI-Ausschuss im EP auf: Stimmen Sie für einen echten Übergang zu einer #PesticideFreeEU!
Unser Statement:
www.slowfood.de/was-wir-tun/...
Urgenda: "Morgen stemt de EU over #pesticiden, een belangrijke dag. O.a. gaat het stemmen over HRI1, een misleidende manier om het gebruik van pesticiden te registeren. Stem voor een schone en gezonde landbouw." #biodiversiteit #PesticideFreeEU #SaveBeesAndFarmers
