What an exciting day! On the top of that our paper on the ecotox risk of #pesticides residues is out! #SoilHealth 👇🥳🥳 setac.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… @EU_ScienceHub @lultimoalbero @euso_soil @veraafgsilva
It's here, proposal for a soil law in 🇪🇺 You may like it or not, think it should have been more ambitious. It's a starting point. What's sure is that @EU_Commission's launching a clear message: soil needs legal protection🤎 Read the proposal➡️environment.ec.europa.eu/topics/soil-an…
Today, we publish a summary of the EU assessment and peer review of #glyphosate: no critical areas of concern for human, animal health and the environment; some data gaps. Our conclusions have been shared with the @EU_Commission and Member States. → europa.eu/!tP9Yxg
Today marks the release of the EU Proposal of the Soil Health Law. #ejpsoilwebinar Tuesday 11/7 for 1 hour on the proposal by Mirco Barbero @DGEnvironment. Register: lnkd.in/eFVKjdr4 #eusoilmission #soilscience @HorizonEU @EUgreenresearch @REA @DGAgriculture @EUgreendeal
The @EU_Commission has proposed a new #soil monitoring #law to make sure they receive the same level of protection as #air and #water, and are restored to health by 2050. Currently, over 60% of European soils are #unhealthy and getting worse environment.ec.europa.eu/topics/soil-an…

Happy to present the outputs of our project @MinagrisEU and @SprintH2020 at #SETAC2023 in Dublin. Both topics of #pesticides and #microplastics received a lot of attention.
Proud and happy to have presented our first results in aquatic ecosystems from WP4 of @SprintH2020 in #SETACDublin @SETAC_world
We are so pleased to have an excellent cohort of PGR students involved in SPRINT! Their projects are contributing to our ongoing research which is assessing the impacts of pesticides on the environment and human health. Read more: tinyurl.com/wm2tu4ux #PhD #AcademicTwitter

We rely on soils for 95% of our food. The #SoilPlastic App allows you to record sightings of plastic in soils, which will then help scientists to gain a better understanding of the impacts of plastic residues on soil health. spotteron.com/soilplastic/ #CitSciMonth @CitSciMonth
📢The 2023 Wageningen Soil Conference Call for Abstracts is now open! We invite #soil scientists from around the world to submit. Full details: wageningensoilconference.eu/2023/call-for-… #soilscience
Now on the 2nd #EUSO Stakeholders forum, WG on Soil Pollution, Violette Geissen presenting some results on the @SprintH2020 project.
#Pesticide use around the globe is either constant or increasing, if measured in tons. However, as the potency of modern pesticides is certainly higher than of older compounds, the total #toxicity sprayed into the environment certainly increases. bit.ly/3gbSK4R
Our third plenary meeting is over! We’ve had a great time having productive discussions around pesticide exposure, planning our next steps, and so much more 👏 Want to be one of the first to hear our results? Visit our website to sign up for our newsletter. 📝 #HorizonEurope
We spent yesterday meeting olive oil producers to discuss how they control crop pests. Alternatives to #pesticides include growing lavender or pyrethrum, sticky fly traps w/pheromones, bottles filled with wine (traps flies), and chamotte (by-product from the ceramics industry)
We're gearing up for our third plenary meeting! The SPRINT consortia will gather in Croatia next week (in-person/online) to discuss project progress and upcoming tasks, including how we'll ensure our findings surrounding the impacts of #pesticide use are shared far and wide.
We will help EU farmers reduce pesticide use 👇 #EUGreenDeal
We will help EU farmers reduce pesticide use 👇 #EUGreenDeal
#OneEU2022 Violette Giessen and @SprintH2020 the more pesticides are applied the more the capacity of soil to control pathogenic microorganisms is compromised, with negative effects on #PlantHealth
Our very own Violette Geissen is presenting at the @EFSA_EU #OneEU2022 conference today! Tune in at 14:55 to hear her give an overview of how the SPRINT project is assessing the impacts of agricultural pesticides on environmental and human health. one2022.eu/programme/one-…
