Pokud kandidátky a kandidátky do Evropského parlamentu upřímně myslí na víc než klišé 'změna klimatu je problém', tak tady mají dobrý návod, jaký jazyk na jejich progresivní voliče může fungovat spíš než defenzíva vůči 🇨🇿 inkvizitorům 🇪🇺 Green Dealu👏🔊 Jan Krajhanzl

Jak tak poslouchám odhodlání 🇨🇿 kandidátů a kandidátek pro volby do Evropského parlamentu, jak je ten špatný Green Deal třeba po volbách zadupat nebo aspoň opravit, je mi smutno, jak lehce - za zvuku motorů traktorů - zase vítězí populistický narativ. #racetothebottom

Presiding UN 🇺🇳 forums usually entails being an honest broker - hard to expect from someone representing Norway🇳🇴, a country which unilaterally decided to turn the seabed of the size of the UK in its #Arctic waters upside down in search for metals.🤨 #DeepSeaMining #DefendTheDeep

The Kingdom of Denmark 🇩🇰🇫🇴🇬🇱 becomes 25th country to call for a precautionary pause on #DeepSeaMining , joining other Nordic & #Arctic nations, Sweden 🇸🇪 and Finland 🇫🇮

🔊 The global call for caution & more science on the deep sea ecosystems strengthens.

Nedávná 🇨🇿 debata o ratifikaci Istanbulské úmluvy ukázala, jak naše maskulinní kultura zamrzla ve vnímání MDŽ z dob povinných podnikových večírků s chlebíčky a karafiáty. Přitom přínosy vyšší účasti žen na veřejném životě jsou zřejmé.
Milé ženy, vše nejlepší - dnes i celý rok! 🌹

💙 #InternationalWomensDay

To mark the day, we spoke to Women of the Arctic. leaders Dr. Tahnee Prior, Dr. Gosia Smieszek & @sohvimjk about why gender is an #Arctic issue & their inspiration for Women of the Arctic.

🙏to Belgian Presidency of the Council of the EU 2024 for highlighting this important instrument to protect high seas (ie. nearly 2/3 of 🌎oceans)!
Hope you can also stimulate 🇪🇺 as a frontrunner in advancing ratifications - having EU 27 member states ratify the Agreement will bring us halfway to its entry into force!
