We are looking for a highly motivated Fundraising and Grants Officer to support ECOS strategic development, with a particular focus on grant management.
The European Commission is reviewing its regulations for domestic cooking appliances, some of the most polluting products in our homes. Responsible for poor indoor air quality, public health risks, and carbon emissions, home cooking appliances that use gas must be eradicated – for our health and for our planet. The EU could make this happen using ecodesign. Here’s how.
Heating and cooling accounts for a staggering 80% of energy used in EU households – with 75% of that coming from fossil fuels. This pollutes as much as all the cars in the EU combined. There are solutions at our fingertips, but policymakers must step up and deliver on climate targets. Here’s how.
Ambitious laws begin with ambitious goals. To lessen the negative environmental impacts of printers and cartridges, laws must be designed with sustainability as a priority. In its new preparatory study on ecodesign possibilities for printers and cartridges, the European Commission has created a solid starting point for what could become impactful ecodesign requirements – but improvements are needed.
ECOS seeks to subcontract a company to set up and ensure the maintenance of a CRM (customer relationship management) tool as outlined in the scope and output of this tender document.
Construction products are one of the most significant contributors to environmental damage with an annual carbon footprint of 250 million tonnes in the EU. This is equivalent to the electricity use of nearly 500 million homes in a single year. Beyond emissions, construction products account for half of the EU's total material consumption and contribute to about one-third of the bloc's annual waste output.
We are looking for a highly motivated Programme Manager to drive our work towards environmentally robust, effective, and credible carbon accounting and carbon management. Working in close partnership with our wide network of members and partners, you will lead our technical and advocacy work on international voluntary standards and policies. While based in Brussels, your work will have a global focus.
