🌹 Rose for Valentine’s Day? A beautiful gesture, but what’s in the flowers? Your gift might be dangerous and toxic. There are no limits for #pesticides on flowers. Many contain dangerous and EU-banned substances. Go for organic flowers or chocolate.

🐝 C’est dingue ! En seulement 24h, vous avez fait doubler le nombre de signatures de la nouvelle pétition contre la loi Duplomb de Ludovic Lévy !

Prochain objectif 500 000 signatures. À partir de ce seuil, elle pourra à nouveau être débattue en séance publique à l’Assemblée nationale.

What's really happening this week when EU leaders meet in a Belgian castle?

This Thursday’s EU Council extraordinary summit is officially about 'boosting competitiveness.' But it’s a Member States’s power grab from EU

EU citizens don’t want “American values”. US should rather consider adopting EU values: it could help US population reach our life expectancy rates, among other things!

Wow, the narrative is finally changing, also thanks to you!

@politico.eu unveils that a powerful push from industry and some national governments, amplified by the Draghi Report, has been used to justify rolling back democratic safeguards and standards in the EU.

Palestinian journalists, like Wael Al-Dahdouh, put their lives on the line to record & report Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza.

Over 260 media professionals have been killed in occupied Gaza since Oct 2023.

The targeting of journalists is a war crime, and each death must be investigated as such.

The @ec.europa.eu confirms its plan for open-ended approvals of certain #pesticides, ignoring scientists and society. It's a weak move in the wrong direction. We need real steps out of the toxic era towards a productive, healthy and biodiverse future.

The Trump administration, meanwhile, aims to shield its manufacturer from lawsuits.
