🌍 Are we caught in the "reductionist trap" of #EnvironmentalRiskAssessment (ERA)?

A new paper by Topping et al. argues that we must start with #system-based thinking. That is also exactly what drives the SYBERAC's mission.

🍷 Are you thinking of a cool glass of green whine? The green liquid is not it! These are so-called pitfall traps that our Portuguese team installed on vineyards to catch microarthropods to investigate pesticide mixture impacts on soil and non-target arthropods (NTAs).

🦇 On #WorldEnvironmentDay, we’re highlighting our Case Study 2: tracking chemical risks that move from water to land.
Traditional assessments often miss this link. SYBERAC is building a systems-based approach to catch it.
