The publication — Recreational use of nitrous oxide: a growing concern for Europe — points to the risks and harms associated with the drug, which is now widely available, cheap and popular among some young people. Over the last decade, there has been a large increase in its recreational use in many regions of the world. In some European countries, particular concerns have been raised since 2017–18, when the drug became more widely available and in larger quantities.

EU policies and EEA activities
1. Members of the European Parliament say the European Union must urgently strengthen its climate action Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) adopted a resolution on increasing the European Union’s efforts to address climate change mitigation and adaptation in September 2022. MEPs want the  Commission to propose a comprehensive, ambitious, and legally binding European climate adaptation  framework, emphasizing the EU’s most vulnerable regions. In addition, MEPs urge the Commission to draw up an EU-wide climate risk assessment, while paying special attention to the risks of droughts, forest fires, and health threats. The EEA is the coordinator of the assessment work. The EU should also continue to play an active role in defining a global goal for adaptation and in ensuring the international community meets its international climate finance goal. << Read more			© European Parliament

Ατομική έκθεση Φωτογραφίας Νίκος Λεοντόπουλος

 

ΔΕΛΤΙΟ ΤΥΠΟΥ Ατομική έκθεση Φωτογραφίας Νίκος Λεοντόπουλος στο περιθ[Ο]ριο 16 Δεκεμβρίου - 28 Ιανουαρίου Ο Εικαστικός Κύκλος ΔΛ, παρουσιάζει την Παρασκευή 16 Δεκεμβρίου 2022 την ατομική έκθεση φωτογραφίας του Νίκου Λεοντόπουλου με τίτλο «στο περιθ[Ο]ριο». Φωτογραφίζοντας το σεσημασμένο δέρας της ύπαρξης *     …Σκοπός της ζωής μας είναι η ατελεύτητη μάζα μας. Σκοπός της ζωής μας είναι η λυσιτελής παραδοχή της ζωής μας και της κάθε μας ευχής εν παντί τόπω εις πάσαν στιγμήν εις κάθε ένθερμον αναμόχλευσιν των υπαρχόντων. Σκοπός της ζωής μας είναι το σεσημασμένον δέρας της υπάρξεώς μας…     Ανδρέας Εμπειρίκος, (Τριαντάφυλλα στο παράθυρο), Υψικάμινος, 1935 (απόσπασμα)   Πάρ’ το στεφάνι μας, πάρ’ το γεράνι μας στη Δραπετσώνα πια δεν έχουμε ζωή…     Τάσος Λειβαδίτης, Δραπετσώνα, 1961 (απόσπασμα) *

Είναι άραγε χωρίς λογικό ειρμό και αναπτύσσονται πράγματι «εκτός των συνειδητών ορίων» οι υπερρεαλιστικοί στίχοι του Εμπειρίκου; Είναι μήπως κλισέ οι στίχοι ενός από τα εμβληματικότερα λαϊκά τραγούδια του Μίκη ή εκτός τόπου και χρόνου η στερημένη από κάθε νεολογικό ρομαντισμό αναφορά στη γένεση μιας χειροποίητης τενεκεδένιας προσφυγικής γειτονιάς που θεμελιώθηκε και προσδιορίστηκε εκατό χρόνια πριν από το βιομηχανικό κέλυφος των «Λιπασμάτων»; Με τη σπουδαία ενότητα φωτογραφιών του που τόσο εύστοχα τιτλοφορείται «Στο περιθ[Ο]ριο», ο Νίκος Λεοντόπουλος ανασυντάσσει τα ίχνη και χαράσσει τα όρια της μιας ιστορικής, κοινωνιολογικής και αισθητικής αναζήτησης του δυστοπικού τοπίου των Λιπασμάτων εξαρχής.

Σήμερα, και αφότου κάποια ακόμη σενάρια αξιοποίησης μοιάζουν επίσης να έχουν ξεχαστεί, τα «Λιπάσματα» παραμένουν ένα έρημο παραθαλάσσιο μέτωπο με συνταρακτικό σκηνικό πεδίο θέασης και ανάκλησης του παρελθόντος, με διακεκομμένο θερινό λειτουργικό παρόν εναλλακτικού πολυχώρου και με άγνωστο μέλλον. Η συναρπαστική φωτογράφιση του Νίκου Λεοντόπουλου στα κατεστραμμένα κτίρια που όπως ο ίδιος λέει «σκοτώνουμε όταν γερνούν», πραγματοποιήθηκε δύο χρόνια πριν, ενώ ολοκληρώθηκε λίγο προτού απαγορευτεί η είσοδος στις εγκαταστάσεις. Στο απόκοσμο ετούτο τοπίο που αποτυπώνεται μοναδικά, ανάμεσα στα ξερά χόρτα και το χώμα, στέκουν ορθοί οι συνταρακτικοί ετούτοι ερειπιώνες που υπήρξαν κάποτε κυψέλες μόχθου και φθηνής ανθρώπινης ζωής. Όγκοι και πλέγματα μετάλλων, τοίχοι γυμνοί, δοκοί, καμίνια και αποτυπώματα μηχανημάτων που εξαφανίστηκαν διαδοχικά σε κατά συρροήν πλιάτσικα, λοφίσκοι πέτρας και αμήχανα γρανάζια ή εγκόλπια στάχτης και σκουριάς, διασώζονται από τη λήθη τους και αναδεικνύονται με ευγενή ενδελέχεια, μα χωρίς ποτέ να εξωραΐζονται από τον φακό.                   Απόσπασμα του κειμένου της Ίριδος Κρητικού

COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION update

 

Press material Thursday 1 December 2022

● Council of the EU   01/12/2022 11:49 | Press release | Geographical indication protection for craft and industrial products: Council adopts position   Ministers have adopted a mandate for negotiations with the European Parliament ('general approach') on the proposed regulation on geographical indication (GI) protection for craft and industrial products. Geographical indications establish intellectual property rights for specific products whose qualities are essentially linked to the area of production, such as Bohemian glass, Limoges porcelain or Solingen cutlery. "This regulation will ensure the quality and authenticity of products sold in the EU. Whenever you buy Bohemian glass, you will be certain that it was produced in Bohemia and that it is not a fake or a replica. The new rules will guarantee that no one will gratuitously benefit from the high-quality work of the genuine producers of a wide range of craft and industrial products." Josef Síkela, Czech minister for industry and trade
