🚨The European Parliament just rejected the #Forest Monitoring Law 🚨

The proposal was a much-needed piece of legislation, essential to better understanding the state of Europe’s forests and how best to tackle their current breakdown.

Our reaction 👇

A mild legal proposal to harmonised #forest data collection in the EU could die today if @eppgroup.bsky.social decides to band together with the extreme right.

As forests get hammered by climate change & out of control logging, we should at the very least have comparable data on what is going on.

🚨 The EU is about to weaken wolf protection officially. And this might only be the beginning. 🚨

Right now, it’s the wolf, but what’s next? The EU has long led the world in environmental protection. Today, this legacy is under threat.

We can't let this happen. Keep your #HandsOffNature.

😲 Did you know that #forests are turning from carbon sinks to carbon emitters?

🌳On International #ForestDay 2025, we need to reflect on the state of this ecosystem in Europe, and its crucial role in the fight against the climate crisis.

🚨 New report: Member States fail to make EU Agriculture more sustainable.🚨

As climate change, biodiversity loss, and growing pressures on agriculture threaten millions of farms across Europe, the need for effective and sustainable farming practices has never been more urgent.

🚨 European Parliament adopts one-year delay on EU #Deforestation Regulation.

After the proposed amendments were dropped, the core of this fundamental legislation was preserved in today's vote.

However, this unjustified delay still represents great concerns.
