Description

Members of the EU now have to respect legally binding targets, regarding national efforts to restore degraded land and sea ecosystems, compiling with the newly endorsed Nature Restoration Law. It was highly politically controversial, with the text risking failing to be approved multiple times in the past few months. Austrian Environment Minister Leonore Gewessler, even voting in favour, sparked a national political crisis.  In this episode, host Giada Santana and Agrifood reporter Sofia Sanchez Manzanaro analyse how the Nature Restoration Law became such a controversial issue and the latest developments in the trade war tensions between the EU and China.  Additional reporting by Sofia Sanchez Manzanaro.
