<P><BIG>Hi,</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>Tomorrow Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) will decide on
Europe’s future path. <B>They will either vote for a transformation toward
sustainable agriculture, or a really bad compromise.</B> [1]</BIG></P>
<P><BIG><B>The compromise is being promoted by the three largest political
groups in the European Parliament – and it’s bad news for farmers, consumers and
the environment.</B> For instance, they suggest defining a maximum amount of
money EU countries are allowed to spend on the environment, instead of defining
a minimum. <B>The compromise would do little to fight the climate crisis, animal
suffering or poisoned food, air and water. </B>[2]</BIG></P>
<P><BIG><B>But there’s good news, too: we know from past experience that MEPs
not familiar with specific topics tend to vote the way their constituents ask,
not the way their party leaders demand.</B> But only if they hear from us, their
voters. That’s why today we’re urgently sending thousands of messages to our
MEPs.</BIG></P>

<P><BIG><B>Agriculture done in the right way can provide us with all the healthy
food we need without the avoidable suffering of animals and needless damage to
the environment.</B> And every farmer can be a driver for positive change to a
more sustainable agriculture, but they need the right support. The European
Union holds the key to that, providing nearly 60 billion euros every year for
farmers - more than an entire third of the EU budget. [3]</BIG></P>
<P><BIG><B>Instead, the compromise proposal would continue threatening our
climate by subsidising the draining of peatland, leading to the release of CO2
and threatening biodiversity.</B> It also wouldn’t reduce the allowed number of
cattle per hectare, which is much needed in order to decrease methane and
nitrate emissions. <B>And the list of bad ideas in this compromise goes on.</B>
[4]</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>But MEPs are more likely to follow their conscience and their
constituency instead of voting the way their party leader demands (especially if
it's for a bad compromise with other parties). It’s now up to you, <B>Vladimir,
and to all of us to urge our MEPs to make the right choice.</B></BIG></P>

sending them thousands of emails.</B> Just last spring, we won a vote in the
European Parliament to stop toxic lead-contaminated PVC from being recycled and
sold in Europe. <B>The result was very close, and we only won by 41 votes.</B>
