The eruption of the 🌋 Hunga Tonga–Hunga Haʻapai 🇹🇴, in January 2022 was the most powerful since #Krakatau 🇮🇩 in 1883 and generated a #Tsunami with waves of up to 20 meters high.

Proactive action by the government of #Tonga and its people saved many lives!

Besides irrigation, we're also looking into nutrients on #WorldFoodDay. @esa-funded research shows that data from #Copernicus #Sentinel2 and Prisma could be used to monitor the nutritional content of staple crops.

This could, for example, help farmers take appropriate steps to boost the quality of their crops as they grow.

Energy taxation initiatives can help 🇪🇺 become the first climate-neutral continent.

How❓ By ensuring that there is fair taxation, for instance on aviation fuel, which reflects the impact on the 🌍 and our health.

The Energy Taxation Directive is an #EUGreenDeal priority.
