hello, forest pest
mavens!
I have posted a new blog
at www.cisp.us - this one summarizes a recent
article outlining how vulnerable Europe is to non-native tree-killing insects
and pathogens and saying that the European Union is trying to strenthen its
phytosanitary rules. Unfortunately, World Trade Organization rules will
make it difficult to adopt the most effective approaches.
The UK is now going it
alone - so it will have both the opportunity & burden of adopting more effective
phytosanitary regs.
I make some comparisons
to the U.S.' situation, too.
