The missing piece of the EU Green Deal. The case for an EU resources law
This report makes the case that, for the EU’s Green Deal to be effective, it is critical to target the root cause of the triple environmental crises of climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss: excessive extraction, production, manufacturing and consumption of material resources. This excess is not evenly distributed in the world: as highlighted in this report, the EU consumes more than its fair share – levels that are almost double the estimated sustainable consumption levels. Addressing material resource consumption by establishing an EU Material Resources Law will be critical to meet the fourfold objectives set out in the Circular Economy Action Plan (CEAP) and stay within planetary boundaries. Moreover, the EU will not achieve its climate change targets without making progress on resource consumption.
