„Wir haben kein Problem mit einem mRNA-Vakzin im Körper, aber eine geneditierte Tomate geht nicht?“ Mit der FAZ habe ich über die Chancen der Genom-Editierung in der Landwirtschaft gesprochen. Wenn wir sie nicht nutzen, verlieren wir in 🇪🇺 den Anschluss.

Wer übernimmt die Verantwortung für die Risiken für die Ernährungssicherheit, wenn wir das Potential neuer Technologien ungenutzt lassen? Es wird Zeit, dass die EU bei neuen Züchtungsmethoden den Turbo einschaltet. Dazu habe ich mit der FAZ gesprochen.(€)

Women are being held back from decent work by:
Lower paying jobs
Little or no social protection
Lack of affordable childcare
Without women’s full participation, we can never build peaceful, prosperous societies.
