Brussels urges total ban on neonicotinoids (Farmers' Weekly [UK])
April 01, 2017
Brussels law drafts urge total ban on neonicotinoids from all fields after having banned three; imidacloprid, clothianidin and thiamethoxam; on all flowering crops for a period of three years in 2013. Scientists are to draw conclusions from the data obtained during the moratorium by this upcoming fall; this is an extension of the original deadline due to the vast amounts of information they now have.
Republican green groups seek to temper Trump on climate change (Reuters)
April 01, 2017
"Conservative green groups such as ConservAmerica and republicEn, along with politically neutral religious groups such as Catholic Climate Covenant and bipartisan groups such as the Citizens Climate Lobby, have ramped up efforts to recruit more congressional Republicans to work on addressing climate change since Trump's election.
Conservative environmental advocates promote what they call "free enterprise" solutions to climate change, like a carbon tax. That stands in contrast to the approach of liberal environmentalists under former President Barack Obama, who backed bans on certain kinds of oil drilling and regulations aimed at discouraging petroleum use.
But whatever their differences, the conservative groups say they have an important role to play."
