They’re raising their glasses.
EU governments just voted for the EU–Mercosur deal — a
dirty trade pact that would supercharge deforestation of the
Amazon, slash food and environmental standards, and push small
farmers to the edge.
Big Ag lobbyists are cheering. But the final vote hasn’t
happened yet.
That’s where you come in.
The European Parliament will vote in just a few weeks. If
enough of us speak up now, MEPs will feel the pressure to reject the
deal. The Council vote passed by just 3.5% — one of the slimmest
margins in EU history. This is a political house of cards. We
just have to push.
Add your name to tell MEPs: Vote NO to the EU–Mercosur
agreement.
Let’s be clear: This deal would boost exports of beef, soy, and
timber tied to illegal deforestation in Brazil. It would
bring banned pesticides and antibiotics into EU food chains. And it
would drive down protections for workers, animals, and ecosystems on
both continents.
Some politicians say the deal includes “safeguards.” But hundreds
of scientists, Indigenous leaders, and civil society groups across
Europe and South America are calling it what it is: a corporate
giveaway at the worst possible moment.
We’ve stopped bad trade deals before. Together, people power
stopped TTIP. We can do it again — but only if we act now, before
the final vote.
Add your name — every signature makes a
difference.
We’ve already pushed governments like France, Ireland, and
Austria to vote no. Now, the movement is turning to Parliament — the
last line of defense.
Let’s show them that people across Europe are ready to defend the
Amazon, for food sovereignty, and for climate justice.
