"Bio", "climate positive", "biodegradable", there have been over 1200 "green" labels and tags in the EU so far. In most cases, there is nothing behind them except the desire to sell the product better. This week, a law comes into effect which will allow only scientifically-based labels to remain on the market!

More than 90% of citizens of Croatia are concerned about the content that children are exposed to on the internet. Competitiveness and development in the digital world must go hand in hand with security. A citizen, in order to fully utilize the internet as it is made available, must feel safe. (translated)
A new EU law has just been introduced that will allow for a safe internet for children!

Naravno da je svatko razuman za da se zaštite djeca od seksualnog nasilja na internetu. No mi smatramo da postoji niz načina da se to učini, a da se pritom ne prate privatne poruke građana. Ispostavilo se da je inzistiranje na hitnoj proceduri pučanima se obilo o glavu i većina je odbila takav prijedlog.
Svake godine u ovo vrijeme iznova se čudimo broju djece koja ne uspiju upisati prvi razred osnovne škole zbog nerazvijenih motoričkih vještina ili emocionalne nezrelosti. Kod starije djece, problema je još i više – svaka druga djevojčica u dobi između 13 i 15 godina je nesretna. U Španjolskoj je primjerice jedno istraživanje pokazalo da je više od 15% mladih u dobi 14 – 17 godina pokušalo samoubojstvo, a gotovo 30% neki oblik samoozljeđivanja u posljednjih godinu dana.
Instagram je prema procjenama samo od tinejdžera u dobi od 13 do 17 godina zaradio oko četiri milijarde dolara od oglašavanja u jednoj godini, a 35 posto prihoda Tik Toka dolazi upravo od tih korisnika. Dok se milijarde zarađuju na dječjoj pažnji, roditelji i društvo plaćaju cijenu kroz sve lošije mentalno zdravlje mladih. Zato je krajnje vrijeme da Europa zaštitu djece stavi ispred profita digitalnih platformi.

Svake godine u ovo vrijeme iznova se čudimo broju djece koja ne uspiju upisati prvi razred zbog nerazvijenih motoričkih vještina ili emocionalne nezrelosti. Nedavno su objavljeni podaci kako skoro polovica djece u četvrtom razredu ne zna pisati kraće priče. Kod starije djece problema je još i više, svaka druga djevojčica u dobi između 13 i 15 godina nesretna. U Španjolskoj je primjerice jedno istraživanje pokazalo kako je više od 15 posto mladih u dobi od 14 do 17 godina pokušalo samoubojstvo, a gotovo 30 posto neki oblik samoozljeđivanja u zadnjih godinu dana
As the first generation that grew up with smartphones, young people in the EU spend an average of seven hours a day on the internet, 78 percent check their mobile phones every hour, and almost half are always online. (translated)
Again, the big companies are favored, while citizens are left in the dark. If we cannot clearly know what we are eating and where that food came from, then something is seriously wrong. (translated)
Smatram da potrošač mora biti dobro informiran pa ako voli, neka kupi. Mogu potpuno razumjeti zabrinutost jer je ovo zakon koji ide na ruku velikim igračima, multinacionalnim kompanijama
To znači da ćemo jesti zdravije i da ćemo biti bolje informirani o onome što jedemo prilikom kupovine.
A particularly important change concerns honey, where stricter labeling of origin is introduced. Instead of the previous unclear labels such as "blend of honey from the EU and non-EU," producers will have to clearly state the countries from which the honey comes. (translated)
Finally! The ban on the sale of energy drinks to minors has just been voted in the Parliament! It has been a long journey, but in the end, it paid off. (translated)

It is time to protect children from energy drinks! Croatia must urgently implement a clear ban on the sale and serving of energy... (translated)
Are you buying a new phone? Wait a little longer! Starting next year, all mobile phones must have removable batteries and be easier and cheaper to repair according to new EU rules! (translated)
