🌱 Introducing BeLIFE: Championing Europe’s Environmental Defenders! 🌱 Today, we’re thrilled to kick off the BeLIFE Project, a Europe-wide initiative aimed at understanding and supporting those on the front lines of environmental protection. Defenders, we know you’re facing distinct challenges—and we’re here to listen, learn, and act. To build an informed support network, we invite you to share your experiences through our consultation form [https://yeenet.eu/calling-all-environmental-climate-defenders-in-europe/]. Every insight gathered will drive actions that support, protect, and advocate for defenders. By taking part, you’re helping to create a stronger foundation for environmental rights across Europe. If you’re a defender or work alongside one, we want to hear from you. Join us in shaping a resilient, united community. 🌍 Your story matters. Together, let’s defend those who defend our planet. #SupportEnvDefenders

🌍 This week, the EU set tougher air quality rules to cut dangerous pollutants like PM2.5 and NO2. Countries have two years to put these laws in place, but some might delay until 2035 or even 2040. 💨 Air pollution is a serious, often invisible threat. In 2021, WHO named it the largest environmental risk to human health, linked to conditions like heart disease, asthma, and cancer. Let’s push for faster, stronger action. ⚖️ #AirQuality #LegalRights #EU #law #PublicHealth

🌍 Europe’s Water Resources Are Under Threat – It’s Time for Action! 💧 A new report from the European Environment Agency (EEA) reveals that less than 40% of Europe’s surface waters are healthy, with little progress since 2009. 🚨 The report calls for stricter regulations, ecosystem restoration, and full enforcement of the Water Framework Directive (WFD). By restoring wetlands and adopting sustainable farming practices, we can protect our water for future generations. 🌿 #WaterCrisis #SaveOurRivers #ProtectOurWaters #ClimateActionNow
