Johanna ECKHARDT Project Coordination Tel. +43 680 21 26 343 <mailto:johanna.eckhardt@no-patents-on-seeds.org> johanna.eckhardt(a)no-patents-on-seeds.org NO PATENTS ON SEEDS! <http://www.no-patents-on-seeds.org/> www.no-patents-on-seeds.org <http://www.facebook.com/nopatentsonseeds> www.facebook.com/nopatentsonseeds <http://www.twitter.com/nopatentsonseed> www.twitter.com/nopatentsonseed From: Johanna Eckhardt no-patents-seeds.org [mailto:johanna.eckhardt@no-patents-on-seeds.org] Sent: Thursday, November 25, 2021 1:28 PM To: 'johanna.eckhardt(a)no-patents-on-seeds.org' <johanna.eckhardt(a)no-patents-on-seeds.org> Subject: Petition against patents on seeds Dear colleagues, we'd like to inform you that we started a new petition against patents on seeds today. There have been ongoing discussions for over ten years at the European Patent Office (EPO) on the most effective way to implement the prohibition of patents on plants and animals derived from conventional breeding. But such patents are still being granted. National governments now need to step in and take their responsibilities seriously. They must take all measures possible at both a national and international level to stop patents on conventionally-bred plants and animals. That is why we are now asking for a conference of ministers to stop patents on seeds. The petition will run until around June 2022 and we want to get organisations from all over Europe involved. We need initiatives on a national level and hope to arrange meetings with the ministries in the next couple of months. We would be very glad if you could help us to finally obtain our common goal of a clear prohibition of patents on plants and animals from conventional breeding! The petition: https://www.no-patents-on-seeds.org/en/petition The press release: https://www.no-patents-on-seeds.org/en/news/petition-conference How you can support the campaign: - Support the petition as an organisation (just send an email to johanna.eckhardt(a)no-patents-on-seeds.org <mailto:johanna.eckhardt@no-patents-on-seeds.org> )! - Forward this email to other organisations! - Share our posts on Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/nopatentsonseeds> and Twitter <https://twitter.com/NoPatentsOnSeed> ! - Share the petition on your homepage, in your newsletter, at events, etc.! - Get in touch if you want to start collecting signatures via your own homepage! - Talk to your national government. Ask them what they are doing against patents on seeds. Get in touch if you need support with expert advise. Our research publications <https://www.no-patents-on-seeds.org/en/background/publications> may be helpful. - Sign up for our newsletter to stay up to date: <http://www.no-patents-on-seeds.org/> www.no-patents-on-seeds.org Please contact me if you have any questions or if you need further support to get active!

For German for instance you can find it here: https://www.facebook.com/CarlsbergGermany/?brand_redir=9401782383 or via Twitter there is a lot of action around the hashtag #StopCarlsberg in German, English, French, Polish, Italian and Spanish.
