Description
A short commentary on the EU 2030 Biodiversity Strategy and the Farm to Fork Strategy.
The Covid-19 pandemic adds other similarly contradictory stances: it is an occasion to change the world for the better, but it also forces us to focus on the here and now to save lives and jobs. The Strategy, whose subtitle is Bringing nature back into our lives, seems to speak to people in lock-down, building on their sense of suffocation from strict indoor living and on the beautiful and nourishing memories of moments spent in nature. However, the Strategy also, and mostly, speaks to industries and entrepreneurs who are projected to the post-Covid time to bring business back into their lives.
Regardless of their complexity, this policy brief draws a few considerations about the overarching and subterranean wires and themes of the the EU 2030 Biodiversity Strategy and the Farm to Fork Strategy.
