Companies suing Governments for enacting policies to tackle climate change isn’t good for companies, their customers of the planet
Fossil fuel and mining companies have launched a record number of lawsuits against governments, demanding billions for lost profits due to green policies. This year alone, they’ve filed a record number of 22 claims. Critics warn this pressures governments to dilute climate action.

The EU has the power to put in place animal welfare rules for imports of meat and animal products. That’s the clear view of experts and studies & it reflects a clear public demand for ethical standards in European food #StopCruelimports
62% of Europeans want EU animal welfare rules on imports.
John Clarke, former Director of International Affairs at the European Commission, confirms it's possible under international trade rules, and a positive step for the EU's revised animal welfare laws to apply to imported animal products too.

This beautiful lion was shot by hunters in Zimbabwe in recent days. Blondie was the leader of a pride with 10 cubs, all of who are now at risk. Those who killed Blondie are said to have paid £35,000 to guides to lure him from a protected area. They will try to export Blondie’s body parts as trophies

The American mink is now defined as an invasive alien species in Europe. Time to end cruel and dangerous Fur Farming in Europe #FurFreeEurope
The American Mink - the species most commonly kept on European #fur farms - has been added to the EU list of invasive alien species.

This adds to the several existing reasons to finally ban fur farming. Yet... this industry is still allowed to operate.
