⚖️New legal analysis slams the #EUMercosur trade deal. 🚗🥩If ratified, it will increase the EU’s climate impacts due to an increase in trade of high-emission products. #StopEUmercosur.

📢 Communities in the US are paying the price for Europe’s fossil gas addiction. The EU replaced Putin’s gas with U.S. LNG, mostly produced through fracking. This is the reality for communities on the frontlines. 🧵👇.#BeyondFossilGas #stopLNG.@FoodWaterEurope @GheorghiuAndy
