For over two decades, officials in Brussels have sidestepped the law and authorised dozens of pesticide compounds by following guidelines written with the help of major agrochemical firms, the report by the Pesticide Action Network (PAN) Europe found.<\/p>\n<p>The guidelines give a green light to pesticides that cause staggering losses of insects, spiders, beetles, butterflies, and other arthropod bugs. In some regions of Europe, insect biomass has declined by an alarming 75 per cent over approximately 25 years, PAN Europe reports. Known as \u201cthe little things that run the world\u201d, arthropods have diverse ecological roles and are essential to the food supply of almost all land animals and humans. Scientists say agricultural intensification is the single main reason for insects&#8217; \u201csevere decline\u201d and that pesticides are a major cause.<\/p>\n<p>The EU Pesticide Regulation states that pesticide products should have no unacceptable effects on the environment and non-target species, taking into account their impact on biodiversity and ecosystems. In practice, however, pesticides that are highly toxic to insects and other bugs &#8211; and negatively impact biodiversity &#8211; continue to be systematically approved in the European Union. After years of delay, the European Commission finally granted the European Food Safe- ty Authority (EFSA) the green light to revise the Guidance Document in June 2024. However, the new guidelines, which are expected to be published in January 2025, may clash even further with insect protection laws.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/green\/2024\/11\/26\/despite-insect-protection-laws-eu-has-authorised-dozens-of-dangerous-pesticides-new-report\">Euronews<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/7-633\/\">Despite insect protection laws, EU has authorised dozens of dangerous pesticides, new report finds<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,274,15578,12207],"class_list":["post-135680","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-eu","tag-insects","tag-pesticides"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135680","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=135680"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135680\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=135680"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=135680"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=135680"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
