SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainability and climate action will be a key theme running through all future European policy proposals and initiatives as the focus of the EU is on the Green Deal. This will lead to a set of new rules for companies to operate within. The BritCham Sustainability Committee covers policy developments in all areas of sustainability – the environment, the economy, and society. The Committee supports the exchange of best practice and the dialogue between British and European policy experts and business leaders, with a focus on Packaging and Packaging Waste, Circular Economy, Sustainable Products initiatives, Taxonomy and the green transition.
