  1. 🤯 Despite no support from 9 EU countries, Council just voted to scrap safety rules & consumer labels for new & patented GMOs by Bayer etc. #NGTs ⛔ The EU Parl demands for labeling and against patents were not upheld. 📣 EP has final chance to repair, take action: corporateeurope.org/en/2026/04/t...

    Take action: Say no to deregul...

  2. Using #newgeneticengineering (#NGTs] to manipulate plant flowers so that they can be pollinated by robots?

    This is just one of many examples of attempts to genetically modify plant flowers...

  7. 👀 Food labels allow us to choose what's in the food we eat, e.g. if they contain GMOs✔️
    💼 But EU politicians are discussing ending the labelling of most #NewGMOs #NGTs
    ✊ We demand that politicians defend our freedom of choice and keep ALL GMOs labelled! #NoGMOsInMyFood

  12. Protest today in Brussels in front of the 🇪🇺EU Parliament — one day before the vote on the negotiating mandate on #NewGMOs (#NGTs) — demanding strong safeguards for farmers, consumers and the environment. Deregulation of new GMOs would mean a sell out of our food system to corporations. Our message to the EU Parliament: Vote for consumer labelling, for a ban on patents on crops (which will increase dependence on Bayer, BASF, Syngenta and Corteva), and for environmental safety checks.

  17. We already have problems with patents spilling over from #GMOs into conventional breeding. If patented #NGTs (gene-edited #newGMOs) get deregulated, the problem will get so much worse. #Patents block access to seed and are a threat to food security! It is mostly agrochemical multinationals that are filing these patents, e.g. #Bayer, #BASF, #Syngenta and #Corteva no-patents-on-seeds.org/en/rep

  21. 🧬 The European Parliament is voting on a proposal that would scrap any safety checks for and labelling and traceability requirements.

  26. Eilmeldung: Der Rat hat der EU-#Gentechnikreform zugestimmt - jetzt ist das Parlament am Zug.

    Die Mitgliedstaaten unterstützen die Deregulierung neuer genomischer Techniken (#NGTs) - ohne umfassende Risikoprüfung, ohne durchgehende Kennzeichnungspflicht oder Patentschutzregeln.

    Jetzt müssen wir im Parlament gegenhalten - für Transparenz, Wahlfreiheit, Saatgutvielfalt und den Schutz gentechnikfreier Landwirtschaft.

  27. (3/3) New genomic techniques #NGTs could boost the scalability, resilience & productivity of #protein & other crop production, but realizing this potential requires the adoption of a science-based #regulations along with better information dissemination: doi.org/10.5281/zeno... #plantbreeding

  28. 👉 What's on the EU lobby menu today? Luncheon by MEP Andriukaitis (former Health Commissioner) to promote #NGTs for claimed "consumer benefits". Surprise: No consumers in the room! Organised with Plants for the Future ETP involving the biotech industry. corporateeurope.org/en/2021/03/d...

  29. Muy recomendable escuchar a @jmmulet @ibmcp comparecer en el Senado ante la Comisión de Agricultura, Ganadería y Alimentación, explicando a políticos las #NGTs y las nuevas plantas que pueden obtenerse con #CRISPR que siguen todavía bloqueadas en Europa.

  30. #NGTs. Gli Stati membri UE hanno infine deciso di concludere i negoziati per de-regolamentare al più presto i nuovi #OGM, nonostante le perplessità scientifiche espresse anche dall’Agenzia francese per la sicurezza alimentare. A quali condizioni, e perché tanta fretta? Alcuni spunti di riflessione.

  32. The French food safety authority ANSES is not the only national agency challenging the scientific validity of the deregulation of new #GMOs (#NGTs). Both the German Federal Agency for Nature Conservation and the Austrian Environment Agency are also highly critical biosafety-info.net/articles/as
