Introduction<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The small gestures we make during our days have a great impact on the planet where we live and it is important to take new action to live in a sustainable Europe.<\/p>\n

Without realising it, in fact, the choice during our purchases, the food we buy, the objects we own have great effects on the environment and climate change.<\/p>\n

The future hinges on our capacity to shift towards a circular economy. This means not only encouraging companies to produce goods sustainably but also altering our consumer habits to repair, reuse, and recycle products, extending their lifespan whenever feasible.<\/p>\n

These issues were addressed during the policy dialogue conducted by Executive vice-president Frans Timmermans. If you are interested in learning more about sustainability in Europe, read on and learn how to watch the event video in streaming.<\/p>\n

The aims of the dialogue<\/strong><\/h3>\n

During the event, the theme of sustainable Europe was addressed. Participants talk about how European citizens can make more informed choices for the protection of the environment.<\/p>\n

The conference discussed the following points:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. How to ensure that shoppers have access to information about the sustainability of foodstuffs and products<\/li>\n
  2. How to avoid greenwashing and ensure that consumers can trust the sustainability claims made by producers<\/li>\n
  3. How to design products that have a longer lifespan to avoid \u2018planned obsolescence<\/a>\u2019<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The discussion allowed the 15 participants from all over Europe to discuss this topic and to express their opinions.<\/p>\n

    The topics of the discussion<\/strong><\/p>\n

    At the end of the event were drawn up three key points that will be used to create awareness among the young generations of Europe:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Sustainable Production<\/strong>. The consensus among participants was that it’s essential to cultivate greater interest among industries in sustainable choices. Additionally, there’s a need to persuade consumers to opt for less plastic and provide them with more sustainable alternatives.<\/li>\n
    2. Energy<\/strong>. During his conversation with young participants, Executive Vice President Frans Timmermans emphasized the significance of transforming the energy production methods in Europe and enhancing our daily energy efficiency. These measures will diminish our reliance on Russian oil and gas.<\/li>\n
    3. Food<\/strong>. During the conversation participants proposed the idea that, similar to energy labels, a straightforward labelling system could be useful for food. However, he cautioned against the risk of greenwashing and false labelling, stressing the importance of creating certifiable and easily comprehensible labels.Furthermore, he pointed out that producing food closer to consumers facilitates better traceability back to the producer.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
