Important report and message from @EUauditors on #AirPollution : "This is a particular cause for concern, say the auditors, as the EU and its member states will need to step up their efforts to meet the stricter standards in the years to come" 👇

[European Court of Auditors @EUauditors]

🌍🏭 Urban pollution continues to be a major environmental threat to health in the EU, warns a report published today by the @EUauditors. European cities are too noisy, and air pollution remains too high, despite improvements.

Interesting discussions at even of European Human #Exposome Network today. Sometimes the science is clear but there is a tension with what society wants (smoke ban, alcohol consumption, ...). "And there is the Minister of Finance ..."

[Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL) @HealthandEnv]

⚠️@EFSA_EU has confirmed that the widely-used PFAS pesticide flufenacet is an endocrine disruptor and a threat to human health.

We urge the @EU_Commission and EU member states to follow the science and protect EU citizens with an immediate ban.
