Rise Foundation report: Crop Protection & The EU Food System: Where are they going?

Description

This report was cosponsored by CropLife Europe (ECPA)

Excerpt from intro: “The need for an ecological transition is now finally starting to be discussed by governments and international organisations around the world. This and the climate momentum can give us real hope that action may start to be taken to shift our production and consumption systems towards a circular and sustainable model. But talking is one thing, and doing is another.

Without fundamental changes, the costs of dealing with global heating, extreme weather events and consequences of biodiversity loss will soon be difficult to sustain, and in order to address these challenges, all sectors need to embrace this transition, and agriculture is no exception.
