The threatened loss of drinking water for tens of thousands of people in the Czech Republic’s Liberec region has earned the notice of Politico, a Brussels-based news site. Politico reported on the plans for the expansion of the Turów brown coal mine in Poland, near the Czech/German/Polish border.
The Frank Bold team is among those helping the Liberec regional government and ten affected municipalities to fight plans for expanding this mine out to a mere 150 meters from the Czech border and down to below the level of the Baltic Sea. Signatures for a petition against this expansion were collected from Frank Bold’s supporters until February 5th.
We analysed the 2025 reports of 100 large EU companies disclosing sustainability information under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) to assess how companies are addressing critical sustainability challenges in their strategy.

EFRAG’s public consultation on the ESRS 40a (reporting standard for non-EU companies) marks a crucial moment for those working on corporate sustainability and accountability to send a clear signal to the EU on what direction to take. What is at stake is nothing less than Europe's international standing and authority, derived in part from its vision of a world where respect for human rights and the planet is a non-negotiable.
