The Health and Environment Alliance organises a webinar on the impact of pesticides on human health on the occasion of the Pesticide Action Week 2025. The webinar will see experts from the European Environment Agency and others present their work on this front.
The EU Green Deal includes bold promises to vastly reduce the damage done by health-harming pesticides, both in the EU and beyond. But big pesticide corporations and their lobby groups are pushing hard to counter those initiatives.
A new video published today by Corporate Europe Observatory (CEO), with support from the Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL), PAN Europe, PAN Germany, Public Eye, Global 2000 and foodwatch, explains how:
- Toxic pesticides that are banned in the EU are still being produced and exported to other parts of the world.
- Residues of pesticides banned in the EU are still being imported in food.
- Free trade deals are another instrument for pesticide corporations and EU trade partners to undermine the EU’s Green Deal ambitions.
