European Commission Opens the Door to New GMOs 3 May 2021

Slow Food Launches the “Flower Bomb Challenge”! 26 April 2021
“In the spring, at the end of the day, you should smell like dirt”.
Margaret Atwood’s words of wisdom inspired us: spring made its come back, it is time to get our hands dirty!
Starting on May 5, Slow Food will kick start the “Flower Bomb Challenge”.
Participants will have two weeks to make their “flower bombs” (a mix of wildflower seeds, clay and soil) and will be invited to throw them around in their garden or in public spaces on World Bee Day (May 20) and the following weekend.
This campaign aims at raising awareness on the dramatic decline of pollinators and biodiversity in Europe. Through the power of this collective action, we hope to engage more people in taking action to save pollinators and the ecosystems they rely on to survive.
