Along with 130+ charities, celebrities and experts from 33 countries, we have signed a new open letter by @ciwf.eu calling for the global #LiveExports trade to be urgently addressed.
On long export journeys, animals often suffer from:
🔴 Overcrowding
🔴 Exhaustion, hunger + dehydration
🔴 Stress
👇
📮 The letter is addressed to the World Organisation for Animal Health, which is currently revising its recommendations on #AnimalWelfare during transport.
It's a critical time to act, and speak up for transported animals! Read and sign the letter here 👇 bit.ly/4fGQhfI

💔 Europe’s forests, rivers, wetlands & wildlife need stronger protection, not weaker laws.
👎 The EU’s nature law “stress test” could open the door to rollbacks at a time of growing climate risks.

Public support for ending cages remains strong across Europe.
While the @ec.europa.eu's commitment to phase out cages is still awaiting delivery, campaigns like this show that citizens continue to demand a cage-free future for farmed animals.
For far too long, humanity has treated soil like dirt.
When, instead, it is one of the most transformative, sophisticated solutions to climate change available to us.
