🐝 #BeeDay - Did you know that 70% of bees nest in the ground? Yet soils are under major threats. Interested in providing feedback/suggestions to the draft roadmap on soil pollution of the Soils for Europe project? Your comments and feedback are welcome! soils4europe.eu/roadmaps


With Générations Futures, we ask the European Commission to ban neurotoxic acetamiprid at once. Acetamiprid is a #neonicotinoid #insecticide that is massively used in the EU as an agricultural #pesticide and as a #biocide. pan-europe.info/press-releases…




🪱 Yesterday was #BiodiversityDay - Soils host at least 59% of Earth's biodiversity, but up to 70% are in bad health. Interested in soils? You are very welcome to provide comments on the draft roadmap on soil pollution of the Soils for Europe project. soils4europe.eu/roadmaps



🥕🪱🌱 Interested in soils? Your comments and feedback are indispensable to shaping the future of EU Soil Research! Provide your comments and feedback on the draft roadmaps on soil knowledge gaps, developed in the Soils for Europe project. soils4europe.eu/roadmaps


The German proposal to classify #TFA as toxic to reproduction 1B was published by European Chemicals Agency - ECHA 🇪🇺. An important step that makes this breakdown product of #PFAS #pesticides a 'relevant metabolite', which should be monitored & not allowed to end up in our #water. pan-europe.info/press-releases…






📣🪱 Tomorrow the ENVI Committee Press votes on the #SoilLaw. As a compromise text was reached among European Parliament, EU Council , @EC_Comission after months of debate and concessions, this should be a formality. The vote should bring us a step closer to healthier soils in Europe.


🥕🪱🌱 Good news: Today a majority of the ENVI Committee Press voted in favour of the compromise text on the EU #Soil Directive. Although the text lacks needed ambition - this is a valuable step to lay the ground for healthy soils. Next: seal the deal in the EU Council & European Parliament
