France's Duplomb law debate reignites over controversial pesticides

The controversial Duplomb law, which previously aimed to ease regulations on farmers but was blocked from reintroducing certain neonicotinoid pesticides, is back in the French National Assembly for debate. The revised bill could allow these pesticides for crops like sugar beets and hazelnuts, sparking protests and opposition from scientists and environmental groups who warn of risks to bees, biodiversity, and human health.
