Today, EU governments will be invited to vote on the @EU_Commission’s proposal to extend the approval period of the health-harming pesticide #glyphosate by 1 year.

What does this mean exactly? A thread 🧵👇

#StopGlyphosate
Glyphosate is currently approved for use on the EU market until 15 December 2022.

Earlier this year, @EFSA_EU announced they would not have their scientific review ready by that time, putting a hard pause on the authorisation renewal process.

#StopGlyphosate
The @EU_Commission is now asking governments to allow #glyphosate to be used for an additional year while we wait for the next steps in the process to begin.

❌ Any extension of glyphosate’s market authorisation leaves farmers & vulnerable groups at prolonged risk of exposure.
