🚨WE YOUTH ORGANISATIONS MOBILIZE FOR OUR NATURE POLICIES IN THE EU 🚨
🌼 What is happening? Read the post for a detailed explanation!
There is an ongoing assessment of the EU Nature Directives, ensuring the protection of thousands of species and habitats in all EU countries 🇪🇺
‼️It could bring helpful solutions but could also turn into an excuse to water down these legislations, by removing requirements & species from the protection lists.

This is a collective work gathering the Global Youth Biodiversity Network (European, France, Italy, and Austrian chapters), Biodiversity Action Europe, Youth Environment Europe, and Generation Climate Europe, the European Youth Parliament for Water
