The European Green party has launched a new campaign on to examine agriculture, food and nutrition policies in the EU.
The campaign is designed to provoke public debate and action on issues on key issues such as:
How to improve the safety of food without sacrificing quality and taste
How to prevent Europe’s agriculture and environment from being deliberately contaminated with genetically modified organisms (GMOs)
How to fish in a manner that does not destroy the oceans and coastal communities that depend upon them
How to create more choice for consumers and farmers through sustainable consumption and production of food
How to respond to the concentration of the international food industry and to make the marketing and trade of food fair
How to promote a healthy diet, reduce food transport, improve animal welfare, preserve the natural environment and enjoy the diversity of European food cultures.
The websites has background documents, discussion forums and e-cards outlining messages about diversity, sustainable farming and nutrition.
