Europe this morning has made another step towards evidence-based policy on modern plant science.
This is a big win for farmers, consumers and our environment as it will allow more efficient crops to be grown across the EU.
At WePlanet, we have been working towards this outcome for several years.

EU politicians will decide on Wednesday whether to go ahead with the ban on words like burger and sausage for plant-based foods.

This weekend, WePlanet coordinated a protest against the closure of Doel-2 near Antwerp. The owner, French energy company Engie, wants to get rid of their nuclear assets as they'll be more profitable selling gas for the foreseeable future, to burn when renewables don't deliver.
