The EU chemical industry supports the European Green Deal, which aims to transform Europe into a sustainable, carbon-neutral economy by 2050. Chemicals are essential for goods and high-tech materials used in a circular economy, but the industry wants to help make dreams of a green future a reality: It's all about "how."
This Roadmap's diluted proposals result from a successful lobbying campaign by the chemical industry on European Union officials. They are to blame because these officials are legally obligated to ensure broad and rapid bans, yet they allow and contribute to slow and ineffective regulation.
