From a major U.S. federal push for regenerative agriculture to gene-edited rice yielding 273% more under extreme heat, the global food system is undergoing rapid transformation. Here’s what these developments mean for Europe and the future of sustainable food.

The EU has finalized a sweeping reform of its carbon market, raising industrial emission reduction targets to 62% by 2030 and introducing a world-first carbon border tax. A new Social Climate Fund worth nearly $97 billion aims to protect vulnerable households from rising energy costs […]

Chile has become the first country in the Americas to approve CRISPR gene-edited wheat as non-GMO, clearing the path for a variety with 5–10 times more dietary fiber. The decision sets a global precedent with major implications for sustainable agriculture, plant-based food innovation, and European […]

The EU has legally bound a 90% net greenhouse gas emission reduction target by 2040, updating the EU Climate Law and reshaping carbon markets, industrial strategy, and corporate sustainability obligations across Europe. From CBAM to the Net-Zero Industry Act, the regulatory landscape is shifting faster […]

The European Commission has proposed cutting EU net greenhouse gas emissions by 90% by 2040 compared to 1990 levels, setting a critical milestone on the path to climate neutrality. The target will drive sweeping changes across carbon markets, energy, transport, and corporate sustainability reporting.

From gene-edited rice yielding over 270% more under extreme heat to algae-based fertilisers boosting yields by 21%, this week’s agricultural breakthroughs reveal a food system under pressure — and rising to meet it. Here’s what the latest science and policy developments mean for sustainable agriculture […]

The EU has formally adopted a binding 2040 target to cut net greenhouse gas emissions by 90% versus 1990 levels, cementing the Green Deal’s trajectory toward climate neutrality by 2050. From carbon market reforms to new fuel pricing and tighter sustainability reporting rules, the implications […]

From seaweed supplements that cut livestock methane by 90% to gene-edited heat-tolerant crops, sustainable agriculture is entering a technology-driven inflection point. Here is what the latest wave of innovation means for Europe’s food system and supply chain sustainability goals.

From Chile’s landmark CRISPR wheat ruling to seaweed supplements cutting livestock methane by 90%, 2025 is proving to be a pivotal year for sustainable agriculture. Here’s what the latest developments mean for European food systems and global supply chain sustainability.

The EU Climate Law was amended in April 2026 to make a 90% net emissions reduction by 2040 legally binding — a landmark shift that reshapes investment planning, carbon markets, and corporate sustainability reporting across Europe. Here is what the updated framework means in practice.
