We Greens/EFA in the EU Parliament 🌍 sent a letter to the European Commission to call for urgent action in response to the #FarmersProtests across Europe. One third of European farms have vanished in the past 15 years. We cannot pursue this path. #NoFarmersNoFuture
The vote in the EU Council is postponed! 📢Let's remember that responsible businesses have repeatedly supported the #CSDDD (see 🧵). Without binding #HREDD legislation, the #EU will keep on facing fragmentation with many different laws and harm against 👫 & 🌍 will continue.

Any attempt to weaken the #EUDR could severely undermine the EU's role in global deforestation and forest degradation. The Cocoa Coalition urges the European Commission to avoid reopening the legislation & support smallholder farmers in its implementation. ✍️ fairtrade-advocacy.org/wp-content/upl…
🧵/ Today in the European Parliament plenary, MEPs debated the need to streamline EU bureaucracy to boost competitiveness. The European Commission must provide clarity and certainty through well-defined guidelines - but backtracking on sustainability legislation is not the way! ️❌
