📅 12 September 2018 📍 Frankrijk

The appeal “Nous voulons des coquelicots” was launched by journalist Fabrice Nicolino and environmental campaigners, calling for an end to the use of synthetic pesticides. Its public-facing signature campaign connected biodiversity loss and the disappearance of common wildflowers with risks to human health. The appeal used accessible language and local organizing to bring pesticide use into public debate, while farmers’ varied experiences and dependencies on agrochemical systems remained part of the wider political context.
