Too bad no science-policy seminars were organized to learn more on the monitoring of forests prior to the proposal of the new law to facilitate its negotiation. Oh wait, both SE 🇸🇪 and CZ 🇨🇿 presidencies did!

EPP and far right set to kill forest monitoring law | Euractiv After voting it down in committee last month, right-wing MEPs are now poised to repeat the move

African nations have made little progress on the "Great Green Wall," a 5,000-mile-long band of trees aimed at halting the advance of the Sahara Desert.
