🌿 Nature is beautiful but fragile – so we need to protect it.
The Environmental Crime Directive coming into force today is good news for nature, and for us!
This landmark law is the first of its kind, ensuring:
🟩 the most severe breaches of environmental rules are considered as crimes

Equal work deserves equal pay.
And equal pay needs transparency.
One year ago, the EU Pay Transparency Directive was approved, bringing us a step closer to equality.
This is particularly important for women, who still earn less than men for the same work.
These rules will help end pay discrimination by ensuring:
🔸Pay transparency for jobseekers
🔸Right to information for employees
🔸Reporting on gender pay gap
🔸Joint pay assessment
