Despite the support of over a million Europeans for the “Save Bees and Farmers” initiative, current EU proposals, such as the Food & Feed Omnibus, threaten to dismantle pesticide safety rules. A new campaign — “For Health, Bees and Farmers” — brings together more than 40 organisations to renew this call, inviting citizens across all 27 EU Member States to take action.

A new EU proposal could remove mandatory labelling for altered DNA in food, taking away consumers’ fundamental right to know what they eat. This Europe-wide campaign calls on citizens to urge the European Parliament to protect transparency and food information before the final vote in mid-May.

270+ organisations, including BeeLife, strongly invite the Commission to listen to the wider audience affected by deregulation. We demand transparent policymaking where the environment and rights of 450 million citizens take priority over industry lobbies.

Another campaign to highlight serious concerns over the lack of transparency and public consultation surrounding the EU Omnibus proposal, as well as the weakening of key safeguards on pesticides, food safety and import controls. By lowering standards and limiting the use of up-to-date scientific evidence, the proposal risks increasing exposure to harmful substances and undermining the EU’s commitment to protect human health and the environment.

The proposed EU "Omnibus" regulation threatens to bypass vital safety tests for toxic pesticides, putting human health and bees at risk. This campaign demands that the Commission rejects any proposal allowing untested chemicals and instead strengthens the precautionary principle.

Europe’s environmental laws — protecting clean water, safe food, public health, and nature are at risk. Sign the #HandsOffNature petition - launched by BirdLife, WWF, Client Earth and EEB - to demand that European leaders defend people and nature, not polluters.

In Autumn 2025, the European Commission opened a 14-day “Call for Evidence” on food and pesticide laws, limiting public input. In response, Friends of the Earth Europe launched a campaign to push back.

1.1 million Europeans are calling for an end to pesticides and a transition to sustainable agriculture. Despite the European Parliament’s 2023 vote against reducing pesticide use, the movement remains strong and determined.

Several NGOs, including PAN Europe and ClientEarth, have launched a legal challenge against the Commission’s re-approval of glyphosate, filing a Request for Internal Review after identifying serious shortcomings.
