Cari Socie/Soci,
sperando cosa gradita ci teniamo a diffondere questa lettera aperta che ci è stata inviata dal Prof. Dirk Inze per supportare la votazione in parlamento per l’approvazione delle Nuove Tecniche Genomiche. La lettera si è ritenuta necessaria in quanto le lobby contrarie all’approvazione stanno conducendo una campagna molto attiva.
LETTERA APERTA "URGENT APPEAL NOT TO BLOCK SCIENTIFIC PROGRESS ON NGTs IN EU PARLIAMENT"
****************************************************************************************
Riceviamo dal Prof. Dirk Inze la comunicazione seguente.
The EU is now entering a decisive phase in changing the legislation on gene editing. Please support the open letter below, share it with you colleagues across. It is important that we scientists voice our opinion as anti-GMO NGOs such as Greenpeace and Friend of the Earth are bombarding MEPs with fearmongering.
Here is the letter to the MEPs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/17X2_bGSghelLQj7WXG1hlJBynUefLLq9LtdzOzXnsqY/edit
