Until 26 January 2024, positions can be sent as part of the European Commission’s public consultation 'Have your say’ – Eighth EU Environment Action Programme – mid-term review. The consultation will examine progress towards the main goals of the programme up to 2030 and the long-term vision for 2050, as well as progress in establishing robust monitoring structures to assess systemic change.

In the submitted position paper of the Green REV Institute, we can read:

’The European Commission indicates ambitious plans and strategies, but omits agriculture and animal production from climate action and debate. This has a direct impact on the drafting and implemented legal and legislative acts, which in this form, with the omission of one of the drivers of the climate, social, health, biodiversity catastrophe, are incomplete and will not achieve the objectives of climate policy, let alone build climate resilience and environmental justice.
