Together we won the European Parliament’s support for halving EU food waste by 2030 – now that’s under threat in the final negotiations! Take action: UK residents: http://ow.ly/Efao30bx38G Non-UK residents, select your country here: http://ow.ly/rB8E30bzy1T This is the big one, which will decide everything - come together with food waste warriors around Europe! It’s crunch time. As we enter the final negotiations to decide whether the EU’s food waste will be halved by 2030, there’s a stand-off. In March, following massive pressure from over 70,000 people and 50 organisations around Europe, the European Parliament voted overwhelmingly in favour of ambitious targets to halve EU food waste by 2030! They voted to review making these targets binding by 2020 to ensure countries take them seriously, and to prioritise getting edible food to hungry people – a massive breakthrough! But now those targets are under threat. In mid-May negotiations will begin between the European Parliament, Council and Commission to arrive at the final agreement on food waste, which will shape the next 15 years of EU food waste policy. And the European Council are fighting to water down every single food waste proposal the European Parliament has proposed. We can’t let that happen! We need to mobilise massive pressure around Europe on our countries’ representatives at the European Council to ensure they get behind the amazing Parliament food waste proposals which you helped win! Take action, and email your country’s Environment Minister and Council representatives, calling on them to halve EU food waste!
