🌍 The Arctic loses an area of ice each winter the size of Belgium—and in summer, more than twice that? ❄️
Since 1979, Arctic sea ice has declined 📉 by 31,000 km²/year in winter & 73,000 km²/year in summer.

#EEAindicator: The share of the EU’s #agricultural land under #organicfarming is increasing, up from 5.8% in 2012 to 9.1% in 2020.
Despite this, the rate of converting land needs to be higher if we are going to reach the 25% target by 2030.
