EU can't reach decision on prolonging the use of chemical herbicide glyphosate_我的网站

一 |     BRUSSELS -- A European Union decision on whether to authorize the use of the controversial chemical herbicide glyphosate in the 27-nation bloc for at least 10 more years was delayed for a month after member countries failed to agree on Friday.The chemical, which is widely used in the 27-nation bloc, is approved on the EU market until mid-December. Representatives of the EU’s executive arm and member countries voted Friday in favor of renewing its authorization until 2033, despite protests from environmental groups. But to be adopted, the 10-year extension proposed by the European Commission required a “qualified majority,” defined as 55% of the 27 members representing at least 65% of the total EU population of some 450 million people. Several member states abstained, and that was not achieved. The European Commission is now expected to amend its proposal before another vote takes place next month. Ultimately, if no consensus is found, the Commission will have the final say.Green members of the European Parliament welcomed the delay and urged member states to vote for a complete ban of glyphosate.“It is irresponsible to again renew the authorization of the use of glyphosate,” said Bas Eickhout, the vice-chair of the Parliament's environment committee. "This would give the big agri a blank check to earn billions by selling a pesticide for which there are still big gaps in knowledge about the effects on our health, and at the same time poses large risks for European biodiversity.”Over the past decade, glyphosate, used in products like the weedkiller Roundup, has been at the heart of heated scientific debate about whether it causes cancer and its possible disruptive effect on the environment. The chemical was introduced by Monsanto in 1974 as an effective way of killing weeds while leaving crops and plants intact.The France-based International Agency for Research on Cancer, which is part of the World Health Organization, classified it as a “probable human carcinogen” in 2015. The EU’s food safety agency had paved the way for the 10-year extension when it said in July it “did not identify critical areas of concern” in the use of glyphosate. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency found in 2020 that the herbicide did not pose a health risk to people, but a federal appeals court in California ordered the agency last year to reexamine that ruling, saying it wasn’t supported by enough evidence.EU member states are responsible for authorizing the use of products including the chemical on their national markets, following a safety evaluation.In France, President Emmanuel Macron had committed to ban glyphosate before 2021 but has since backpedaled. Germany, the EU's biggest economy, plans to stop using it from next year, but the decision could be challenged. Luxembourg’s national ban, for instance, was overturned in court earlier this year.Greenpeace had called on the EU to reject the market reapproval, citing studies indicating that glyphosate may cause cancer and other health problems and could also be toxic to bees. The agroindustry sector, however, claims there are no viable alternatives.“Whatever the final decision that emerges from this re-authorization process, there is one reality that member states will have to face up to,” said Copa-Cogeca, a group representing farmers and agricultural cooperatives. “There is as of yet no equivalent alternative to this herbicide, and without it, many agricultural practices, notably soil conservation, would be rendered complex, leaving farmers with no solutions.”。    近日，记者从市建委获悉，2026年度杭州市十大低碳应用场景评选结果公布，上城区数字能源港低碳园区示范场景、钱塘区焱唐超级工厂动态显色发电建筑立面示范场景两个建筑领域场景成功入选。数字能源港坐落于上城区钱塘智慧城城北园区，占地0.61平方公里，曾是“空间紧、负荷密、用能杂”的典型老旧工业园区。如今，项目集成园区内外200余项先进技术，从制能、储能、用能、节能四个维度完成全链路系统性低碳改造，成为都市老工业园区绿色低碳转型的标杆。

二 | 数字能源港制定了“整体规划、分类施策、技术精准匹配”的系统方案。办公楼侧重“超量绿电生产+五恒环境调控+光储直柔”技术组合，让楼宇自己“晒太阳发电”，同时为室内提供舒适恒温环境；厂房配套光伏储能、应急供电、货运车辆电动化，以稳定用电保障生产运转；公共区域采用绿电直接供电、多功能空间布局、智能AI照明，既节能又实用。园区还搭建起自主研发的智慧能源大脑平台，依托专业算法，光伏发电与用电负荷预测准确率均超90%；结合实时气象监测，系统可提前启动空调预调，自动调节园区室内温度；还能调节充电桩错峰充电，把光伏产生的绿色电力直接供给周边建筑使用。

三 | 经系统性改造，数字能源大厦实现负碳运行，获国家零碳建筑认证，数字能源孵化器及风雨长廊获国家近零碳建筑认证。焱唐能源科技工厂立面BIPV项目位于钱塘区临江高科产业园，将龙焱能源科技自主研发的光伏产品铺设于厂房南、西立面，立面安装总面积达4234平方米，总装机容量542千瓦；项目同时采用自主研发的碲化镉薄膜彩色技术，相较传统彩釉工艺，透光率提升超100%，组件光电转换效率达13%以上。这套光伏幕墙不仅是高效的发电单元，更是高性能的保温隔热层。实测数据显示，相较原有金属幕墙，应用“燚彩”光伏幕墙后，厂房外墙热渗透率降低37%，室内温度下降4℃—6℃，大幅削减了夏季空调的用电负荷。

四 | 据测算，该项目在25年生命周期内，预计累计减排二氧化碳7962吨、二氧化硫240吨、氮化物120吨。
