LE PUY-EN-VELAY, FRANCE - JUNE 29, 2025: Farmers and environmentalists gathered in Le Puy-en-Velay, France, on Sunday, June 29, to protest the proposed Duplomb Law, which aims to revise national agricultural policies. Demonstrators voiced concern that the bill would reintroduce banned pesticides such as neonicotinoids, known for their harmful impact on pollinators and biodiversity. Protests were held in multiple cities across France, with participants warning that the controversial legislation could threaten ecosystems and public health. Environmental groups and agricultural unions emphasized that pesticide use not only damages nature but also poses serious risks to human health. The controversial bill is scheduled to be reviewed by a joint committee of the Senate and National Assembly on Monday. Reporting by Mathieu Prudhomme / Writing by Aleyna Cil
