- Goede aanbevelingen van de Europese Rekenkamer om onze kwetsbaarheden in de mondiale grondstoffenketen te verkleinen. Maar zonder uitvoering blijven het ideeën op papier.
- ⚠️ EU risks running short of raw materials for renewables, the auditors say. The European Union is having difficulties securing the supply of the raw materials it needs to meet its energy and climate goals. This is the conclusion of a new report by the @euauditors.bsky.social.
- 👉 Daarom zeg ik: Richt een Europees agentschap voor #grondstoffen op:. Een instantie die markten monitort, strategische voorraden beheert en gezamenlijke inkoop organiseert. En vooral: die voldoende middelen krijgt.
- Ter vergelijking: Japan investeert €13 mld per jaar in grondstoffenzekerheid. De #EU, met #ResourceEU: €3 mld. Zo win je geen geopolitieke wedstrijd. Wees ambitieuzer met duurzame substituten: creëer markten, versnel vergunningen en schaal op.

- 3/14) This has led to calls to suspend CBAM for fertilizers. Numbers can be bent, narratives can be spun, but truth has a way of resurfacing — often after the damage is done.

- One registration. For all roads in Europe. 🚗 There are already 250+ Low Emission Zones (LEZ) in the EU, and more are coming. But every Member State has its own registration, and drivers risk fines just for not knowing.
- This isn’t fair. We need a system that works across borders, so drivers aren’t punished for something they didn’t know.
- I asked the European Commission if we can have one EU-wide registration for all LEZs. One badge and one system for all roads. 👇 I call on the @ec.europa.eu to make this happen. Let’s simplify travel, make Europe greener, and keep it fair for everyone. (www.europarl.europa.eu/RegData/ques...
