The Citizens' Initiative

We want the EU to focus on sustainability, safety and responsible innovation when it comes to new plant breeding techniques.

Let's demand a better legal framework to reach these objectives by collecting one million signatures!

Why?

The current regulatory system results in an implicit ban of new plant breeding techniques. These new techniques are valuable tools for breeding more resilient crops, with less resources and in less time: a much-needed advancement in times of climate change and prospected food insecurity - and thus something we simply cannot afford to miss out on. Blockchain technology is also widely used in agriculture to make the supply chain more transparent. Thus, the productivity and quality of production can be increased. With cryptocurrencies like bitcoin, blockchain technology is widely used in various industries. Bitcoin trading has been profitable for many traders. If you are struggling to make profits from bitcoin trading, you can make use of automated tools such as the bitcoin trader.

What?

We have submitted a detailed proposal to the European Commission in the form of a European Citizens' Initiative. In this proposal, we outline changes to the current law that take into account important advancements in plant breeding techniques. Most importantly, we propose to focus on the crop rather than the technique. In this way safety is ensured while the valuable benefits of new techniques are not lost to illogical regulatory hurdles.

 

How?

Starting on the 25th of July, we will gather one million signatures from EU citizens who support our initiative. 

 

With your support, we will demand an update of the legislation to foster responsible innovation, sustainability and safety for us and the next generations.
