Earth is getting darker—and hotter. As glaciers melt and reflective cloud cover declines, our planet absorbs more of the Sun's energy. One surprising reason? Cleaner air means fewer aerosols that help form reflective clouds. Climate is full of crazy feedback loops. #WePlanet #ClimateScience

A big win for science and sustainable farming in the EU! New Genomic Techniques (NGTs) have the potential to help farmers grow more resilient crops, reduce inputs such as pesticides and fertilisers, strengthen food security, and support a more sustainable agricultural system.

Today we will learn if the EU actually supports sustainable agriculture and food security, or whether they only engage in lip service. We call on MEPs to support the NGT legislation to avoid more delays and uncertainty for farmers, researchers, breeders, and innovators across Europe.

There are two possible outcomes. If the committee rejects the amendments, the legislation can proceed to a final vote on Wednesday. That would bring Europe a step closer to implementation. If amendments are adopted, the file will return to further negotiations, creating more delays & uncertainty.
