ECOS provided feedback to the European Commission's public consultation on the biodegradability criteria for polymers used in several different types of fertilisers in the EU. Our response to this consultation focuses on ensuring scientific accuracy, alignment with standards, and above all, the reduction of plastics, microplastics, and polymers in the environment. It is imperative that the limits proposed in these amendments provide for the reduction of polymers in the environment.
