Groundbreaking legislation!!!!
Congratulations #Australia activists. All the work has paid off.
👏👏👏
Recently, the @EU_Commission presented a transport proposal without the live exports ban we have all been waiting for.
When will it be Europe's turn?

Very positive Fur Free Alliance event in Helsinki this week, meeting with politicians and experts. Countries around Europe are banning the horror of #fur farming & and it's only a matter of time until Finland joins them #FurFreeFinland

Bekräftat: Sveket mot djuren 🇪🇺
EU-kommissionen vänder djuren, medborgarna och vetenskapen ryggen. Av de fyra utlovade lagstiftningspaketen kommer bara ett att presenteras. Ett demokratiskt misslyckande och fullständigt oacceptabelt.

Det är ett stort år för djuren i Europa, och att samla de mest kraftfulla organisationerna som arbetar för deras bästa ger hopp om att förändring väntar. 🙏

Varje år transporteras miljoner och åter miljoner levande djur inom EU. Vad driver detta och vilka möjligheter finns att hitta andra lösningar? I dag får jag jag möjlighet att presentera @EUauditors rapport i Jordbruksutskottet i @Sverigesriksdag

🙌 #GoodNews: yesterday the @EUauditors published its review of the #LiveAnimalTransport regulation.
The review re-emphasises the need for a serious change in the industry - a bold move for #AnimalWelfare that we have been campaigning for for years.

🎙️“Transporting live animals over long distances can have harmful consequences on their welfare.”
EU animal transport legislation is not evenly enforced, and there is a risk that transporters could exploit loopholes that derive from the different national sanctions systems.”

📈 Do you need more country-specific data or are you interested in comparing animal transport data between countries, animals and the economic value of movements?

A simple moment of pure joy. No one can watch this and deny that farmed animals are sentient beings. We keep going until all farmed animals have good lives. #LoveALLAnimals

@VxaSverige s försök att hålla kor på stall 18 månader utvärderar inte djurskyddsförordningens krav på bete för kor. Det finns ju ingen positiv kontroll. Dålig forskning djurförsöksetiska nämnden Uppsala ! @lrf_mjolk @BoAlgers @AnimalProtectSE @DjurensRatt

Today, after yesterday's #IPCC report, everything is back to normal – as always. We continue to ignore the climate crisis as if nothing happened. Our societies are still in denial, and those in power go on with their never ending quests to maximise profits. We cannot afford this.
