We have no time to waste.
Our Early Warning Report shows that a majority of EU countries risk missing some key 2025 waste targets, namely:
- 55% preparing for re-use and recycling of municipal waste
- 65% recycling of all packaging waste
Here are our findings ↓

The good news is that most EU countries are making progress in implementing waste reforms to increase recycling rates.
These ambitious rules will ensure that Europe fully reaps the environmental and economic benefits of the circular economy and help reach climate neutrality. ↓

@EU_Commission Recycling is not enough. We must REDUCE the amount of packing used, and use BETTER, more resource efficient packaging. We need a bonus/malus system that creates enough incentives for the packaging industry to make the TRANSITION.
We look forward to driving further action and boosting food waste reduction.
Early this year, we gathered a panel of randomly selected EU citizens. From packaging to consumer behaviour, their recommendations will speed up our efforts to reduce waste.
