Today is #WorldSoilDay 🌱🤎 Healthy soils act like a sponge, preventing floods & ensuring food security. Since 2005, our 🇪🇺 LIFE Programme has financed 74 soil-related projects worth €183 million! Discover more about it 👉 europa.eu/!t6bpBy #SaveSoil #EUSoil


I remember how Corporate Europe Observatory (CEO), Transparency International EU and others were advocating for this back in the early 2010s when I was still in Brussels. Now, >10 years later, it's finally there.


ESPE European Parliament Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship & SMEs Thanks ESPE for fighting tirelessly to protect our future. It’s tragic we must defend what should be obvious: kids should NEVER be exposed to harmful chemicals. #EU it’s time to walk the talk—protect our most vulnerable. Ban #EDCs in toys. It’s that simple. #ToxicFreeFuture


PFAS are a threat to children's rights, health, and environment. An ambitious restriction of these forever pollutants is urgently needed - but industry lobbying is trying to hijack this pivotal process 🚩 Find out more in Corporate Europe Observatory (CEO)'s new report at bit.ly/4g1fyNU.






⚠️Also today: ❓How the EU's proposed PFAS restriction is at serious risk of being hijacked by corporate lobbyists? 📗 Check out the new report of Corporate Europe Observatory (CEO) #ToxicFreeFuture #BanPFAS #ForeverLobbying x.com/corporateeurop…




Thanks to Commissioner Jessika Roswall for a good meeting and stressing that civil society and work of NGOs are essential. We in particular talked about #PFAs scandal and the urgent need for the EU to make Europe the first PFAS-free continent. We count on you to lead the way.

"As a result of 3M providing misleading information to customers, untold volumes of the foams may have been misused across the world, contaminating soils, water and people’s blood with PFAS." In The Guardian today we break down the toxic lies that left people exposed to PFAS.



⚖️#PFAS: Legal action is long overdue 🇪🇺 EU has failed to adequately regulate PFAS and protect our health and environment ⏰️Delaying decisive action is no longer an option 🚨Now is the time to #BanPFAS and modernise #REACH sustainableviews.com/legal-action-o… Financial Times Sustainable Views


270+ civil society groups urge the European Commission to uphold #RulesToProtect health, nature, climate and democracy. Europe’s ability to combat the climate, biodiversity, and pollution crises - and foster social justice and progress - depends on it. shorturl.at/aOkku



This week Patrick ten Brink, Faustine Bas-Defossez and Tatiana Santos met Jessika Roswall to discuss the vital role of civil society in decision-making and the urgent need to tackle chemical pollution under the EU Green Deal, to move towards a #toxicfreefuture.
