Denmark is acting on #NitratePollution to protect health and the public purse. The rest of Europe deserves the same ⚖️

That’s why we joined farmers, environmental and civil organisations in urging the EU Commission to uphold and strengthen vital protections, not weaken them eeb.org/en/library/j...

Ireland has failed to provide any evidence that the next nitrates derogation will provide solutions to our ever-worsening water quality. We aren't holding up our end of the bargain, and we haven't for decades.

It's no wonder water quality is not improving, derogation farmers are being told to do things that will not stop nitrates from getting into the water — An Taisce's Head of Advocacy Dr Elaine McGoff with Philip Boucher-Hayes on RTÉ Radio 1 CountryWide

Concerningly, publicly available evidence suggests ECan, the only regulator with power to control the pollution of communities’ drinking water sources, may not yet have stopped making the situation worse. #nitratepollution

There is a need for strong leadership to support and protect the farming community, at the same time as we protect our rivers, lakes, and estuaries. Protecting water quality shouldn't be a partisan issue.

Expert panel urges regional A‑minus‑R rulemaking; board hears widespread public comment
A statewide agricultural expert panel told the State Water Board it is scientifically defensible to use an applied‑minus‑removed (A‑minus‑R) metric averaged over three years to measure nitrogen discharge and recommended regionally set, iterative targets with technical assistance. The board and stakeholders discussed timing, data needs and alternative reporting for small farms and nurseries.
