Despite continued promises of more environmentally-friendly policies, 80% of the CAP budget goes to carbon-intensive food production and large-scale farms🐄
This unfair system is destroying our nature and killing small-scale farms📉
We need change now!

Keep the #EUGreenDeal solid - it secures future jobs, prosperity, #agroecology & #foodsecurity, and healthy #climate & #nature!
The new @EU_Commission must push for smarter implementation, not roll back ambition. Society and #nature need certainty!

Ahead of tonight's EU-Parliament hearing, the Agri Commissioner-designate suggests better enforcement of existing laws and market-based tools.
How can we address the urgent challenges facing our food systems without bold new measures? #FoodJustice
