Ever heard of cheesing?* 🧀
It's the perfect way to describe the game that's played by decisionmakers to destroy environmental & human rights protections:
1. Cheap tricks
2. Unfair
3. Overly easy
Watch & let us know who you nominate for BIGGEST cheese⁉️

Last night, the EU institutions made a deal to destroy safeguards for new GMOs. A gift for corporations, a punishment for consumers, farmers and nature.

Is the topic of new GMO so controversial that it brings the @europarl.europa.eu website down? www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/pres...
Any this is not about green transition, this is about more power for #BigAg and abolished farmers' and consumers' rights

From Brazil to India, Indonesia to South Africa, citizens sent a clear message: toxic trade must stop.

🍽️ Food concerns everyone, so do the rules that protect it. If the EU rolls back food & pesticide laws, we all lose: our health, nature, clean water
We built these protections together over time. We have 7 days to defend them.
