Oh no, what horrible news. Such a terrible loss. David was indeed great. Sorry for your loss Joana, and all those closest to him ❤️‍🩹

Absolutely agree with this, getting these tools from those vendors is problematic. Maybe is an argument for the EU to develop its own model

And I think this counfounds tool with application. The pesticide example is like baning the use of all chemicals because some pesticides are harmful.
Of for #2, what is "most" of the current use? And what is harmful? Genuine questions, not sure what are you concluding exactly as harm?

We should absolutely promote a critical approach.... "Banning" them sounds fundamentally uncritical...
