European Biodiversity Strategy supports organic farming
“To provide space for wild animals, plants, pollinators and natural pest regulators, there is an urgent need to bring back at least 10% of agricultural area under high-diversity landscape features. These include, inter alia, buffer strips, rotational or non-rotational fallow land, hedges, non-productive trees, terrace walls and ponds,” the European Biodiversity Strategy reads.- agriculture

Deforestation and products placed on the EU market
Globally, the EU is responsible for more than 10% of the destruction of forests through the consumption of products such as meat, dairy products, soya for animal feed, palm oil, coffee and cocoa. The European Union has therefore decided to open a public consultation procedure on the theme of forest protection: "Deforestation and forest degradation - reducing the impact of products placed on the EU market".- agriculture

Plastics is everywhere
Plastics is everywhere: in our homes exactly as it is in the Planet (the world production of plastics has increased from 2.3 million tons in 1950 to 448 million tons in 2015). On the tops of the highest mountains as well as on the bottom of the oceans. It is estimated that 15 tons of plastic waste per minute is thrown into the sea. This means 8 million tons per year.- animal welfare
