Original: Pesticides: Scientific community warns of 'dangerous step backward' in European laws
The European scientific community has issued a warning that proposed or enacted changes to EU pesticide legislation amount to a 'dangerous step backward' in environmental and health protections. According to Le Monde, researchers fear the rollback of current safeguards could increase pesticide use and exposure across Europe, sparking debate over the future direction of the bloc's agricultural and environmental policy.
Why now: Ongoing EU debates over weakening pesticide regulations have prompted scientists to publicly warn against a rollback of protections.
