Today, the European Commission has published the second part of its Circular Economy Action Plan. The package includes much needed initiatives on packaging, the so-called bio-plastics, and carbon removals.
Implementing policy and standards at all stages of a product life cycle can exert high impacts on the resource-saving potential of products and promote circular economy and resource efficiency. This is why Environmental Design and Labelling are effective tools for improving the energy efficiency of products.
Together with our members Green Transition Denmark, we are organising an online workshop focusing on why (and how!) civil society should get involved in standardisation. The effective participation of environmental NGOs in standards-making is key to making sure our planet is protected by robust rules - and this year we are focusing on the case of cement.

On 30 November, the European Commission will publish its Circular Economy Action Plan. It includes a framework indicating in which cases it makes sense to use bio-based, biodegradable or compostable plastics. Spoiler alert: applications should be extremely limited.
