This event was co-hosted by MEP Pascal Canfin (RENEW), Chair of the European Parliament’s Environment, Public Health and Food Safety Committee (ENVI) and MEP César Luena (S&D), Rapporteur of the EU Nature Restoration Law, and will take place in the European Parliament in Brussels.

The European Commission released its latest set of circular economy policies on 30 November 2022. This included key files such as the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation. The purpose of this event was to react to the release of these pieces of legislation and provide a space for key stakeholders to give initial responses to the new legislative initiatives, including policymakers, businesses and third sector organisations. The focus of this event was on the new policies and how they fit into the wider movement towards a more circular European economy. The event offered a collective space to discuss the policies whilst also giving a progressive business view. This event was hosted by CLG Europe’s Taskforce on Climate Neutral and Circular Materials and Products. The Taskforce was launched with the aim of driving forward policy action on sustainable materials by bringing together a group of progressive businesses across sectors and value chains.

A dialogue between policymakers and business networks for a climate neutral economy.

At this High-Level Event, the European Corporate Leaders Group is bringing together high-level business leaders, experts, and decision makers, including the EU Commissioner for Energy, Kadri Simson and IEA’s Chief Energy Economist Tim Gould to discuss the acceleration of clean energy transition as a response to today’s dual climate and energy crises and the role of businesses in this transition.
